Text Quotes
I don’t want to be the next Michael Jordan, I only want to be Kobe Bryant  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) I’ll do whatever it takes to win games, whether it’s sitting on a bench waving a towel, handing a cup of water to a teammate, or hitting the game-winning shot  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) There’s been a lot of talk of me being a one-man show but that’s simply not the case. We win games when I score 40 points and we’ve won when I score 10  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) I’ve played with IVs before, during and after games. I’ve played with a broken hand, a sprained ankle, a torn shoulder, a fractured tooth, a severed lip, and a knee the size of a softball. I don’t miss 15 games because of a toe injury that everybody knows wasn’t that serious in the first place  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) The Black Mamba collection of watches is me: It is my alter ego, so to speak. As I mentioned before, it is sharp, cutting edge and sleek which are characteristics I try to apply when I’m out there on the basketball court  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) Losing Michael Jackson is a handicap. It’s the Lakers trying to win a championship without Kobe Bryant  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) He’s very knowledgeable. That’s the one advantage that I see in Kobe Bryant’s career compared to Michael Jordan. Ten years into Kobe Bryant’s career, we’re seeing a very polished 27-year-old player who’s probably got another seven or eight great years ahead of him  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) I’m just so excited. We all are. We’ve been waiting for this [the gold medal] for years now and it’s finally here. This meant so much. It just felt so good  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) Everybody wants to talk about NBA players being selfish and arrogant and individuals. But what you saw today was a team bonding and facing adversity and coming out with a big win  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) I’m playing against great players, playing against the best in the world. The competition-that’s what I’ve always wanted  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) You have to be able to separate business from the love of the game. There were a lot of decisions made business-wise that I wasn’t happy with, and I took a lot of blame over the years. But you have to be able to separate that from the love you have for the game  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) The best player I’ve ever played against is Kobe Bryant. I have seen him do some stuff that is just unbelievable  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) Michael Jordan on his worst day is ten times better than Kobe Bryant on his best day  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) Michael Jackson? He was something more (than one of my favorite entertainers), a true friend. He wasn’t just a genius. Above all, he was a good person, who gave so much. He gave people values, he encouraged them to better themselves all the time. He was far deeper and more authentic than people could see. He was misunderstood too many times  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) The best quality about Kobe Bryant? You want me to be honest? I don’t know. I’ll tell you why. I open my arms to everybody. But he never stepped forward for the embrace. So I never really got to know him. I don’t know anything about him, and it’s kinda sad  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) I love going one-on-one with someone. That’s what I do. I’ve never lost. It’s a whole different game, just to have them right in front of you and be able to do whatever you want  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) Eeew, I’d be a little uncomfortable Googling myself. People sit there - and Google themselves? That’s kind of weird  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) Dropkick Murphys get me going, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana... plus, all the regular hip-hop stuff  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) Can I jump over two or three guys like I used to? No. Am I as fast as I used to be? No, but I still have the fundamentals and smarts. That’s what enables me to still be a dominant player. As a kid growing up, I never skipped steps. I always worked on fundamentals because I know athleticism is fleeting  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) At the end of 2003, my game was complete. Shooting, defense, using the dribble, transition, midrange stuff was all there. Then it was about fine-tuning and trying to improve in each area  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) Christmas morning, I’m going to open presents with my kids. I’m going to take pictures of them opening the presents. Then I’m going to come to the Staples Center and get ready to work  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) I have self-doubt. I have insecurity. I have fear of failure. I have nights when I show up at the arena and I’m like, ‘My back hurts, my feet hurt, my knees hurt. I don’t have it. I just want to chill.’ We all have self-doubt. You don’t deny it, but you also don’t capitulate to it. You embrace it  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) I’m more than comfortable just sitting back and scoring 21, 22 points or whatever and getting 10, 11 assists whatever the case might be. More than comfortable with that. It’s just a matter of the pieces that you have around you and what you can do to elevate everybody else  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) Difficulty is a nurse of greatness-a harsh nurse, who rocks her foster children roughly, but rocks them in strength and athletic proportion. The mind, grappling with great aims and wrestling with mighty impediments, grows by a certain necessity to the stature of greatness  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) I had orders from the great Bill Russell. Me and him were talking in Seattle the other day, and he was telling me how rivalries should be. I asked him if he ever disliked anybody he played against, and he told me, ‘No, never,’ and he told me that I should shake Kobe Bryant’s hand and let bygones be bygones and bury the hatchet  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) People look at my competitive spirit, and they automatically attach it to the thing that’s most similar, most easily recognizable, which is Michael [Jordan’s] competitive spirit. I’m different. I enjoy building. I enjoy the process of putting the puzzle together, and then the byproduct of that, the consequence of that, is beating somebody. That becomes the cherry on top, the icing on the cake  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) The hunger [to success] is the same, no matter what it is that you’re doing. It’s like an unquenchable thirst to learn more, or to feel like you could have done more, and to be brutally honest and self critical, which is very hard to do. It’s easy, and human nature is to just blame somebody else. It’s very, very hard to self assess  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) I’ve been watching Messi for some time now, and his ability to decide games and keep possession of the ball is amazing.  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) Dear Basketball, From the moment I started rolling my dad’s tube socks and shooting imaginary game-winning shots ... I fell in love with you.  (Kobe Bryant Quotes) He [Phil Jackson] is such a basketball genius in terms of the details of the game, the little nuances of the game and the rhythm of the game.  (Kobe Bryant Quotes)
