Magic Johnson
Young people want you to be real with them.
Magic Johnson
For me, it always goes back to something I learned in basketball. There's winning and there's losing, and in life you have to know they both will happen. But what's never been acceptable to me is quitting.
Magic Johnson
When you face a crisis, you know who your true friends are.
Magic Johnson
The real story is that I had unprotected sex. That's that. That's easy.
