Kobe Bryant – Inspiring Quotes from a Basketball Legend

I can’t relate to lazy people. We don’t speak the same language. I don’t understand you. I don’t want to understand you.

The most important thing is to try and inspire people so that they can be great in whatever they want to do.

Great things come from hard work and perseverance. No excuses.

I focus on one thing and one thing only – that’s trying to win as many championships as I can.

I’m reflective in the sense that I learn from my experiences. I learn from the things I go through.

Once you know what failure feels like, determination chases success.

The moment you give up, is the moment you let someone else win.

I’ll do whatever it takes to win games, whether it’s sitting on a bench waving a towel, handing a cup of water to a teammate, or hitting the game-winning shot.

I don’t want to be the next Michael Jordan, I only want to be Kobe Bryant.

People just don’t understand how obsessed I am with winning.

I have self-doubt. I have insecurity. I have fear of failure. I have nights when I show up at the arena and I’m like, ‘My back hurts, my feet hurt, my knees hurt.’

If you’re afraid to fail, then you’re probably going to fail.

I have nothing in common with lazy people who blame others for their lack of success.

Winning takes precedence over all. There’s no gray area.

I’ll do whatever it takes to win games, whether it’s sitting on a bench waving a towel, handing a cup of water to a teammate, or hitting the game-winning shot.
