Gambling is legal and betting is legal, for what I bet.

I know fear is an obstacle for some people, but it is an illusion to me . . . Failure always made me try harder next time.

Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, others make it happen.

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.

Because I want every kid to be viewed as a person rather than as a member of a certain race does not mean that I'm not black enough. . . . Do they want me to be positive just for black kids and negative for everybody else?

I'm a firm believer in goal setting. Step by step. I can't see any other way of accomplishing anything.

I've never been afraid to fail.
