I love my family, I love my relatives. One special request I have is for the media back in Taiwan to kind of give them their space because they can't even go to work without being bombarded and people following them.

More quotes by Jeremy Lin
For me, when I get knocked down, I really try to get back up and go at it again. I don't like to give up.
Jeremy Lin
It seems like everybody's perception of me is very bipolar. To one group, it's overpaid, overrated to another group, it's underpaid, underrated, underdog. It's funny to me because there's no real balance.
Jeremy Lin
With pro-gaming that's one of the toughest parts - living game to game.
Jeremy Lin
And when other people see me play basketball...the way I treat my teammates, the opponents, the refs, that's all a reflection of God's image and God's love so that's the stuff I try to focus on.

My first dunk ever was in middle school. We were playing, me and my church friends, and I dunked it, and I swear I could not sleep that night.

I speak Mandarin and can read and write a little. I took a few classes at Harvard to get better in my reading and writing skills.
Jeremy Lin
It's really important to me to go to church, which is sometimes tough when I get back from road trips late on Saturday night, but I try to make it a priority to go every week.

From the sense of being an ambassador for Jesus Christ, hopefully, through my story and through all the improbables and the miracles that happened in my life, people are inspired or at least a little bit warmer to the idea of exploring who Jesus is.
Jeremy Lin
I'm very humbled and honored. I'm very thankful to the Asian-American Community for all their support!

I was playing garbage minutes the first two to three weeks. There was definitely a little bit of 'what's going on?' in my prayers.
Jeremy Lin
In many ways, the longer I live, I understand that there are so many things outside my control. That’s why I believe faith is such a big part of the story. There are so many things that were orchestrated by God, that were put into place to make this perfect storm, that created Linsanity.
Jeremy Lin
You don't get respect for being an Asian-American basketball player in the U.S.
Jeremy Lin
And people are always saying he deceptively quick, deceptively athletic, and I don't know if that's just because I'm Asian or what it is, but obviously there's going to be stereotypes that you have to fight.
Jeremy Lin
I get scared of a lot of attention. I get scared of the spotlight. And I'm not talking about on the basketball court.
Jeremy Lin
I'm not like the next Michael Jordan, but I'm also not what everyone saw me as before I started playing in the NBA, either.
Jeremy Lin
Sometimes you come up against a mountain and you end up making the mountain seem bigger than God.
Jeremy Lin
You don't get better if you win all the time. You look at yourself more when you lose.
Jeremy Lin
If I had a day to myself I would just play video games with my brothers.
Jeremy Lin
The change that I never fall into is the, 'I'm-above-you-look-at-me-do-stuff-for-me change.' The change that I'm hoping I get to is where I become wiser, smarter - where I put myself in situations that don't have a huge potential for disaster.
Jeremy Lin
Having small group once a week gives me a lot of encouragement and accountability. Even though I go to church, I don't really know many people there, but my real community is my small group.
