I came here with the perfect chemist's perception. The formula they had was perfect and any added ingredient could make it go bad or worse.
All of my projects are done right because I know the game, and I consider myself a rap expert.
Stay out of the gentlemen's clubs. Get a lot of rest. Just have fun and relax and stay focused.
That was a foul, young lady. You know that was a foul. Don't ask dumb questions.
As a general, and as a leader of this team, whatever I've got to do get my guys going I'll do it every time. If I have to be the bad guy sometime, I'll guess I'll take that. That's what a leader and a general and a chief of police does. Everybody is not going to like it, but I don't care if they like or not. I'm Bush, so if they don't like it resign.
Przybilla can't guard me when I'm 27, 37 or 47.
No matter where they put people, no matter how they try to promote people, there aren't too many people in the game today that are on my level on and off the court.
But that is the only thing that slows me down is the system. No one, two or three was big enough to slow me down, only the system. It was the system that slowed me down to make my numbers fall. Not because I am older.
I failed, I think, seven [or] eight times before I finally got my first [championship]. It was just, you know, just about me growing up. Now that I'm an old, old veteran-age 29-I do things a lot differently. I don't go to the gentlemen's clubs anymore. I had to slow that down.
A lot of times when I buy a lot of toys, I get a little jealous and keep one or two for myself. So I've got a couple of drones. I've got a couple of remote-control cars. I like to have fun
Get away from my house. What do you want?
I'm a cop, and cops talk. They called me the day he did it, but did you ever hear me say anything about it? I played ball, because that's how I am. I'm true.
I'm dominant every night. I come in every night and get beat up. I never make a face when they try to flagrant or hack-a-Shaq me, because I'm not from this planet. Earthlings don't faze me.
Excellence is not a singular act, but a habit.
As a basketball fan, I get sick and tired of people talking about numbers. To me, the world is getting too materialistic.
If you take a needle and stick her in the booty and take a needle and stick me in the booty, we're both going to say ouch.
He's just intelligent-sort of a nerd, actually. He's the only brother I know who made a 1420 on the SAT. I don't think Chris Dudley did that, and Mr. Smarty Pants went to Yale. Kobe doesn't hang out. He doesn't go to the clubs. He doesn't ride around. He doesn't put rims on his car. He's just him. He's a sophisticated kid. Damn mature for his age.
We know what we have to do. I know I have to get up in the morning, put my underwear on first and then put my pants on first. I don't need people to tell me that.
I... am... the son of Jor-El!
Being that I'm a tropical black man I don't get to see much snow. When I see snow I go crazy. That's why they call me Sasquatch. There's no Sasquatch found in the snow so I had to go back to my Sasquatchian roots.
Some of my favorite songs--and I don't know if this is the right terminology--are white-boy classics.
I don't take anything personal. I just have a certain file in my head, so Earthlings must be careful with what they say.
I just said to myself, 'Damn, I'm a great player.'
Like my good friend Eminem the rapper says, you only get one shot.
As a military child I first learned how to deal with different types of people and how to deal with order.
