"When you start training camp, you're building..." - Quote by Kobe Bryant

“The people who truly know me know what I'm like. There have been people who try to say things that aren't fair, and I check them. And then they don't like me because I checked them.”

“Great things come from hard work and perseverance. No excuses.”

“One thing you gotta know about me is I have absolutely no filter. I have no problem saying what the hell I think of someone.”

“Plans are worthless. Planning is priceless.”

“By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.”

“One important key to success is self-confidence. An important key to self-confidence is preparation.”

“We could never learn to be brave and patient, if there were only joy in the world.”

“I exist as I am, that is enough, If no other in the world be aware I sit content, And if each and all be aware I sit content. One world is aware, and by the far the largest to me, and that is myself, And whether I come to my own today or in ten thousand or ten million years, I can cheerfully take it now, or with equal cheerfulness, I can wait.”

“Our enemies provide us with a precious opportunity to practice patience and love. We should have gratitude toward them.”
