When you make a lotta money, you got a lotta people shooting at you. Anywhere you go, the tab goes up. People borrow stuff from you, you don't see it again - they figure, Hell, Moses ain't gonna miss it, why do I have to return it?

When I retire, I wanna be able to just lay back. Only way to make it happen is to be investing my money, not spending it.

When the ladies see an athlette walking around, they think, Well, he got the cocaine, so let's go get high with him.

I enjoy money. You got to know how to enjoy it, though. A lot of people enjoy it the wrong way: They spend it all.

I came up in a small town ghetto and I never did think I'd be a celebrity or famous athlete, I was just loving to play the game of basketball. And I worked hard at everything I did.

The only reason people are saying I'm the number-one player is because I'm with the number-one team.

I've always just wanted to play ball, that's all. I didn't want to do no interviews, because I didn't want to be bothered with reporters.
