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.

The party's just getting started. This is where the fun starts.
Kobe Bryant
Dear Basketball, From the moment I started rolling my dad's tube socks and shooting imaginary game-winning shots ... I fell in love with you.
Kobe Bryant
You have to be true to who you are.
Kobe Bryant
There’s a reason why players that have multiple championships have multiple championships. There’s a certain characteristic and an understanding and knowledge and that’s not something that’s easily taught. You kind of have to go through it and it kind of has to be part of your DNA from the beginning.
Kobe Bryant
It doesn't bother me at all. Do I hold any hard feelings? Not at all, ... Life is too short to sit around and hold grudges. I don't hold any whatsoever.
Kobe Bryant
You have to rely on others to have success as a group.
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
I'm here. I'm not going anywhere. No matter what the injury - unless it's completely debilitating - I'm going to be the same player I've always been. I'll figure it out. I'll make some tweaks, some changes, but I'm still coming.
Kobe Bryant

Kobe Bryant
My brain cannot process failure... It WILL not process failure
Kobe Bryant
As far as carrying the torch for the years to come, I don't know. I just want to be the best basketball player I can be.
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
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
The guy said NBA players are one in a million, ... I said, 'Man, look, I'm going to be that one in a million.
Kobe Bryant
I don't just try to score. The challenge is elevating my teammates to be able to win a championship.
Kobe Bryant
What does perfection look like to me? Championship rings
