“I didn’t want to be known as Madonna’s playboy, her boy toy.”

I felt like calling attention to AIDS. I had the AIDS ribbon colored into my hair during the playoffs in ’95.

I’ve been homeless. I’ve worked at 7-Eleven.

I’m hungrier than those other guys out there. Every rebound is a personal challenge.

For five years I’ve felt like the best prostitute in a high-class whorehouse. But all the other girls get paid more than I do.

I learned a lot I wouldn’t have learned roaming the streets of Dallas.

This whole huddle thing really pisses me off.

Fifty percent of life in the NBA is sex. The other 50 percent is money.

The Spurs couldn’t put everything aside and just play the damn game.

Why it’s been left to me to smooth things over, I don’t know. Dennis Rodman, of all people.

I think marriage and athletes is a bad combination.

I want to be anywhere in the world that I’m needed. I want to spread a message of peace and love throughout the world.

I only weigh 220, so I have to do something to keep from being tossed around by all the guys who weigh 250 and more. I train hard, but I don’t try to get too big.

My last year with the Spurs, I was late to practice one time.

I’m fighting against becoming soft. That’s the worst thing you can say to a basketball player.

Some people want to have controversy between the races.

Madonna wasn’t an acrobat or anything, but the sex was good. I could tell she liked it.

O Lord, you have searched me and you know me.

Be still and know that I am God.

The whole world steps aside for the man who knows where he is going.

There’s no excuse for the young people not knowing who the heroes and heroines are or were.

Destiny is made known silently.

How can I know what I’ll do, until I’ve done it? How can I say?

I should have known right then it was too good to last, God, it’s such a drag when you’re livin’ in the past

If you want to know where your heart is, look where your mind goes when it wanders.
