More quotes by Kobe Bryant
My brain cannot process failure... It WILL not process failure
Kobe Bryant
Thank god, I'm not from this world.
Kobe Bryant
I was probably born a scorer, but I was made a winner. Whatever works, whatever wins championships, wins games, that's what I do.
Kobe Bryant
Nobody in the world can guard me one-on-one.
Kobe Bryant
There's a through line that connects all of us.
Kobe Bryant
I'm extremely willful to win, and I respond to challenges. Scoring titles and stuff like that... it sounds, well, I don't care how it sounds - to me, scoring comes easy. It's not a challenge to me to win the scoring title, because I know I can.
Kobe Bryant
Winning takes precedence over all. There's no gray area. No almosts.
Kobe Bryant
I felt like when we came back from the All-Star break we needed everybody to feel like they were part of the team, ... I'm just trying to do whatever the team needs at any given time.
Kobe Bryant
I don't just try to score. The challenge is elevating my teammates to be able to win a championship.
Kobe Bryant
I've played with IVs before, during and after games. I've played with a broken hand, a sprained ankle, a torn shoulder, a fractured tooth, a severed lip, and a knee the size of a softball. I don't miss 15 games because of a toe injury that everybody knows wasn't that serious in the first place.
Kobe Bryant
It doesn't matter to me what place I get traded to. If I was traded someplace - I'd play anywhere.
Kobe Bryant
I didn't expect this award [the 2008 MVP] would come to me. I'm surprised. I've played pretty well in other seasons. Our team hasn't been as good. Things just fell into place.
Kobe Bryant
Christmas morning, I'm going to open presents with my kids. I'm going to take pictures of them opening the presents. Then I'm going to come to the Staples Center and get ready to work.
Kobe Bryant
Difficulty is a nurse of greatness-a harsh nurse, who rocks her foster children roughly, but rocks them in strength and athletic proportion. The mind, grappling with great aims and wrestling with mighty impediments, grows by a certain necessity to the stature of greatness.
Kobe Bryant
There's a much bigger world out there.
Kobe Bryant
It's not about the number of hours you practice, it's about the number of hours your mind is present during the practice
Kobe Bryant
What does perfection look like to me? Championship rings
Kobe Bryant
I'm just right down the middle, man, ... It doesn't matter to me. I'd love him (Phil Jackson) as a coach. It doesn't matter to me. If they want him here, he'll be here. If he wants to come, he'll come, he'll coach and we'll go from there.
Kobe Bryant
There's a difference [between taking a charge and flopping]. We all know what flopping is when we see it. The stuff that you see is where guys aren't really getting hit at all and are just flailing around like a fish out of water. That's kind of like, where are your balls at?
Kobe Bryant
Friends come and go but banners hang forever.
