More quotes by Magic Johnson
HIV changed my life, but it doesn't keep me from living.

Magic Johnson
I tell you, it's funny because the only time I think about HIV is when I have to take my medicine twice a day.

Magic Johnson
Everyone thought I was going to die like a year later, they didn't know. So I helped educate sports, and then the world, that a man living with HIV can play basketball. He's not going to give it to anybody by playing basketball.
Magic Johnson
My father was a great example of a strong and good man and Christian man, and my mother taught all my six sisters how to be young ladies and mothers and how to take care of your family. And so I think they were - they still are - great examples for all of us to their kids and to the world, too.
Magic Johnson
It all started when I got injured early in my second season. This turned out to be as difficult emotionally as physically.
Magic Johnson
The important thing is this Just because I'm doing well doesn't mean that they're going to do well if they get HIV. A lot of people have died since I have announced. This disease is not going anywhere.
Magic Johnson
If the community is happy, then they support your business and if your business is doing well, then you can give back even more to the community.
Magic Johnson

Magic Johnson
Life doesnt stop because something happens to you.
Magic Johnson
If you want someone to be your mentor, you better be ready to listen and be humbled.
Magic Johnson
You know I was a shy guy and people didn't know that and still don't know it today. I'm sure basketball brought my shyness out because of the fact that you have to do interviews, and that people are always talking to you in terms of the fans and everything.
