I'm conservative with my money. I'm the one who's got a family and I can't be playing basketball forever, so when I retire, I want to live on what I've made.

I'm never gonna try it, because you got to pay a lot for cocaine, and that's not the way I want to spend my money.

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?

You got to work hard whatever you're doing and try to be number one and take pride in what you're doing. You want to be at the best at your spot then you got to work hard, man. A lot of guys don't work as hard as it gonna take.

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.

People might get mad for five or ten minutes, but then they respect you more. And the next time they see you, they'll tell their friends, "Don't go up to him with that stuff - he don't mess with cocaine."

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.
