Sometimes it can feel like there are a billion people on my shoulders.

One is taller. The other is shorter.

I only want to play basketball, and play it well and be happy about it. But I realize that with being famous, comes a lot of demands.

I finished my high school. I think an educate is very, very important.

A good leader must be fair.

All of the Chinese people, the Asian people say, "Oh Yao Ming, you are all the Chinese, all of Asia's hopes." That's a lot of pressure. I'm just a basketball player.

Moving to the US was quite a transition for me, to say the least! There were, and still are so many new things to get used to: the language, food, culture, even the style of basketball is different here!
