"Michael Jordan is the greatest competitor in the history of sports, not just basketball. This guy is an assassin in shorts." (ESPN commentator Jack Ramsay)
"I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." (MJ)
"I realized that if I was going to achieve anything in life I had to be agressive. I know fear is an obstacle for some people, but it's an illusion to me." (MJ)
"I've always believed that if you put in the work, the results will come. I don't do things half-heartedly. Because if I do, then I can expect half-hearted results." (MJ)
"Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it." (MJ)
"My attitude is that if you push me towards something that you think is a weakness, then I will turn that perceived weakness into a strength." (MJ)
"Maybe it's my fault. Maybe I led you to believe it was easy when it wasn't. Maybe it's my fault that you didn't see that failure gave me strength. That my pain was my motivation." (MJ)
