"I have nothing in common with lazy..." - Quote by Kobe Bryant

“I write all day and outline stories, a sports mythological universe.”

“I was shooting 45 times a game. What was I supposed to do? Pass it into Chris Mihm & Kwame Brown?”

“You have to be true to who you are.”

“Everything you do is based on the choices you make. It's not your parents, your past relationships, your job, the economy, the weather, an argument or your age that is to blame. You and only you are responsible for every decision and choice you make. Period.”

“A martial artist has to take responsibility for himself and accept the consequences of his own doing.”

“As we must account for every idle word, so must we account for every idle silence.”

“No matter what time it is, wake me, even if it's in the middle of a Cabinet meeting.”

“Plough deep while sluggards sleep.”

“Work hard at your job and you can make a living. Work hard on yourself and you can make a fortune.”
