"When you love something, you'll always come..." - Quote by Kobe Bryant

“There's a difference [between taking a charge and flopping]. We all know what flopping is when we see it. The stuff that you see is where guys aren't really getting hit at all and are just flailing around like a fish out of water. That's kind of like, where are your balls at?”

“I wouldn't say I'm a ball hog. I'm a shooter.”

“I don't have to hear that criticism, that idotic criticism anymore.”

“Each of our passions, even love, has a stomach that must not be overloaded. We must in everything write the word 'finis' in time; we must restrain ourselves, when it becomes urgent; we must draw the bolt on the appetite, play a fantasia on the violin, then break the strings with our own hand. The Wise man is he who knows when and how to stop.”

“For passion, be it observed, brings insight with it; it can give a sort of intelligence to simpletons, fools, and idiots, especially during youth.”

“Because of its tremendous solemnity death is the light in which great passions, both good and bad, become transparent, no longer limited by outward appearances.”

“It was through the feeling of wonder that men now and at first began to philosophize.”

“I can never pick up a thing without wishing to improve it.”

“My own business always bores me to death; I prefer other people's.”
