More quotes by Kobe Bryant
I think that game is a testament to what happens when you put no ceiling to what you're capable of doing.
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
Diligent accumulation of personal wealth is not inherently ungodly so long as it is complemented by equally diligent distribution of personal wealth.

Kobe Bryant
You have to be able to separate business from the love of the game. There were a lot of decisions made business-wise that I wasn't happy with, and I took a lot of blame over the years. But you have to be able to separate that from the love you have for the game.
Kobe Bryant
When you have empathy toward your opponents, it helps you destroy them quicker. Because you understand exactly who they are. You understand what buttons to push. You understand if they're insecure, if they fear embarrassment. And you can really hit those buttons to strike a nerve.
Kobe Bryant
I realize now that there's a strength in dunking that I can use to my advantage. When you dunk all the time it isn't as demoralizing to the opponent, but when you dunk at a key moment in the game you can use it to change the momentum.
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
He shouldn't have been in the NBA, but we were too cheap to pay for a point guard.
Kobe Bryant
I've been watching Messi for some time now, and his ability to decide games and keep possession of the ball is amazing.
Kobe Bryant
The people who truly know me know what I'm like. There have been people who try to say things that aren't fair, and I check them. And then they don't like me because I checked them.
Kobe Bryant
Each moment of my life I was dreaming of how great I could be, and continued working hard. Each time I closed my eyes I could see me shining bright like a sun.
Kobe Bryant
I like playing for the purple and gold. This is where I want to finish up.
Kobe Bryant
I'm playing against great players, playing against the best in the world. The competition-that's what I've always wanted.
Kobe Bryant
I've pretty much done all I can here and, you know, God will carry me the rest of the way, so I'm pretty comfortable with that.
