More quotes by Kobe Bryant
The party's just getting started. This is where the fun starts.
Kobe Bryant
I have my own identity ... The whole Michael thing does drive me nuts sometimes because people won't leave it alone. He's bald, I have hair. He's almost 40, I'm 22. Seriously though, I wish people would let it be and let me just be Kobe.
Kobe Bryant
If you don't believe in yourself...nobo dy else will.
Kobe Bryant
Everyone looks at your watch and it represents who you are, your values and your personal style.
Kobe Bryant
I don't just try to score. The challenge is elevating my teammates to be able to win a championship.
Kobe Bryant
You just try to take it one day at a time, ... You step on the basketball floor and just play. It's fun. I'm comfortable with it.
Kobe Bryant
You have to be true to who you are.
Kobe Bryant
The hunger [to success] is the same, no matter what it is that you're doing. It's like an unquenchable thirst to learn more, or to feel like you could have done more, and to be brutally honest and self critical, which is very hard to do. It's easy, and human nature is to just blame somebody else. It's very, very hard to self assess.
Kobe Bryant
Once you know what it is in life that you want to do, then the world basically becomes your library. Everything you view, you can view from that perspective, which makes everything a learning asset for you.
Kobe Bryant
Isn't the basis of a democracy to send somebody to Washington to bring something back for you? ... It isn't?
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
My parents are my backbone. Still are. They're the only group that will support you if you score zero or you score 40.
Kobe Bryant
I feel like I just returned a 100-yard kickoff in the last two minutes of the Super Bowl to win it all, only to have my run called back by a flag on the play.
Kobe Bryant
The motivation for me is just the game itself, just playing the game the right way and trying to win, compete every time I step out there on the floor. That's motivation enough for me to go out there and play well.
Kobe Bryant
Diligent accumulation of personal wealth is not inherently ungodly so long as it is complemented by equally diligent distribution of personal wealth.
Kobe Bryant
He is a fool who only sees the mischiefs that are past.
Kobe Bryant
If I panic, everyone else panics.
Kobe Bryant
Love me or hate me, it's one or the other. Always has been. Hate my game, my swagger. Hate my fadeaway, my hunger. Hate that I'm a veteran. A champion. Hate that. Hate it with all your heart. And hate that I'm loved, for the exact same reasons.
Kobe Bryant
What I'm doing right now, I'm chasing perfection... and if I don't get it, I'm going to get this close.
Kobe Bryant
We're grown ass men, you don't need to be falling all over the place.
Kobe Bryant
