More quotes by LeBron James
I've always been skeptical of people who say they lose themselves in a part. Someone once came up to Spencer Tracy and asked, Aren't you tired of always playing Tracy? Tracy replied, What am I supposed to do, play Bogart? You have to develop a style that suits you and pursue it, not just develop a bag of tricks.

The man above has given me some unbelievable abilities to play the game of basketball. I just try to take advantage of it every night. I got the trust of my teammates and my coaching staff to go in there and let it go.
LeBron James
It's hard to win in the league, because every team is good, they got players on their team. A lot harder than high school. It's competitive, and that's what I most love about it.

LeBron James
I never rushed the fact that I wanted to be in the NBA or rushed the fact, you know, they asked me about the NBA. I always (unintelligible) back to the fact that I just love playing with my teammates.
LeBron James
I treated it like every day was my last day with a basketball.

I'm going to be one of the top four that's ever played this game, for sure. And if they don't want me to have one of those top four spots, they'd better find another spot on that mountain. Somebody's gotta get bumped, but that's not for me to decide. That's for the architects.
LeBron James
My game is really played above time. I don't say that like I'm saying I'm ahead of my time. I'm saying, like, if I'm on the court and I throw a pass, the ball that I've thrown will lead my teammate right where he needs to go, before he even knows that that's the right place to go to.
LeBron James
You know, my family and friends have never been yes-men: 'Yes, you're doing the right thing, you're always right.' No, they tell me when I'm wrong, and that's why I've been able to stay who I am and stay humble.
LeBron James
I'm under a super microscope. I've got my friends to keep me cool. As long as you've got friends, you've got nothing to worry about.
LeBron James
Teams make it tough on us, we make it tough on them. When you have two well coached teams that wanna win, it's going to be a competitive game.
LeBron James
Every practice, every film session, every game will help our chemistry.
LeBron James
I don't know how tall I am or how much I weigh. Because I don't want anybody to know my identity. I'm like a superhero. Call me Basketball Man.
LeBron James
The best teacher in life is experience.
LeBron James
As a society how do we do better and stop things like this happening time after time!! I’m so sorry to these families. Violence is not the answer people. Retaliation isn’t the solution as well.
LeBron James
This is a proud moment for our city. This is the first time we have won a Finals game in this city, and I'm happy to be part of the history.
LeBron James
I laugh and joke, but I don't get distracted very easily.
LeBron James
Once you squeeze toothpaste out, you can't put it back into the tube. The same is true with our words. Once we say something hurtful, we can't take it back
LeBron James
If I could clone myself, we’d be all right. But I can’t.
LeBron James
I can't play the game of basketball and live my life on what other people expect me to do or what they think I should do. That doesn't make me happy. What makes me happy is being able to make plays for my teammates, to be able to represent the name on the back of my jersey.
