More quotes by Dwight Howard
Growing up, I played about every sport imaginable except soccer and hockey. I've always had a passion for basketball. I remember actually playing basketball when I was two or three years old. The time I knew that I could really take my game to the next level.
Dwight Howard
I've been on the side where you have nothing, and now I'm on the side where anything I want is there for me. When I didn't have the means to do whatever I wanted to do, I still had peace.
Dwight Howard
The hardest thing to do is to trust people. Even if you know them from way back when, it's hard to trust people. There's a lot we have to deal with, and it's the price of fame.
Dwight Howard
When I'm smiling, I'm supposedly not taking the game seriously. When I'm not smiling, then it's like, He don't care. He's just out there.
Dwight Howard
The biggest thing is always being around people that are going to lift you up and not bring you down. That's why I prayed for God to send me some good friends. He's done that. I don't really have a lot of friends, but the friends I do have are great.
Dwight Howard
People say you don't need a father to be successful. I take offense to that.
Dwight Howard
I would never, ever desert my child. A lot of my friends didn't have fathers growing up, and they were very upset that their fathers weren't around. I was lucky to have mine around.

Dwight Howard
I do a lot of exercises where I'm so tired that I'm not supposed to do the last rep. What that does is it teaches me that no matter how far I am, how hard I've fallen, I'm never out of the fight. I just take that with me every time I'm in the weight room.
Dwight Howard
God says, Turn the other cheek. So there's no way I could play in a man's game.
Dwight Howard
Today is a new day. Even if you were wrong yesterday, you can get it right today.
Dwight Howard
Everybody needs to realize that it doesn't matter how old you are or how young you are, you still can be a Christian and live for God. It's not easy but that's why we have God's word and He forgives us when we do something we shouldn't be doing. You know, God sent His son to die for us and He paid that sacrifice so you can go to Heaven.
Dwight Howard
I just want to show Atalanta who I really am and show my teammates what kind of teammate I am.
Dwight Howard
I want to be held accountable. I want my teammates and my coaches to push me to be the best that I can be.
Dwight Howard
I hated that perception that I didn't work hard, that I really don't love basketball.
Dwight Howard
It was more of me rushing my shots than anything. Thats the biggest thing for me. I was making good moves, but at the end of my moves, I was rushing all my shots. I learned a lesson.
Dwight Howard
When I'm anywhere, I'm going to show God that I'm thankful just for life. I'm living out my dream. This is what I want to do.
Dwight Howard
Coming out of high school, I think it was good for me instead of going to college because college and the NBA are two different things. You can dominate on the college level, but the NBA is a whole different story. The dudes that do the best are the ones who work hard.
Dwight Howard
Sugar can cause fatigue and it can also build up on your joints. It can lead to those injuries where you've got nagging pain on those joints.
Dwight Howard
You really can't please people. I know everybody's attention is on what I'm doing on the floor.
