Failure makes me work even harder.

If you accept the expectations of others, especially negative ones, then you never will change the outcome.

The good part about being famous is being able to help people. The hard part is every day you have to be in a good mood, because that is what people expect. You learn to get good at it.

You have to expect things of yourself before you can do them.

I think the players win the championship, and the organization has something to do with it, don't get me wrong. But don't try to put the organization above the players.

Sometimes, things may not go your way, but the effort should be there every single night.

When I step onto the court, I'm ready to play. If you're going up against me, you'd better be ready. If you're not going to compete, I will dominate you.
