Michael Jordan
My most memorable dunk, that I think about very, very often, is the Patrick Ewing dunk.
Michael Jordan
I am competing with what I am capable of.
Michael Jordan
Once I get the ball, you're at my mercy. There is nothing you can say or do about it. I own the ball.
Michael Jordan
I don't know about flying, but sometimes it feels like I have these little wings on my feet.

If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it.

I just feel that at this particular time in my career, I've reached the pinnacle of my career, I've achieved a lot in that short amount of time, if you want to call it short, but I just feel that I don't have anything else to myself to prove.
Michael Jordan
If I had been playing for money I would have complained a long time ago that I was underpaid.
Michael Jordan
The game of basketball has been everything to me. My place of refuge, place I've always gone where I needed comfort and peace. It's been the site of intense pain and the most intense feelings of joy and satisfaction. It's a relationship that has evolved over time, given me the greatest respect and love for the game.
Michael Jordan
Anything can happen if you are willing to put in the work and remain open to the possibility. Dreams are realized by effort, determination, passion and staying connected to that sense of who you are.
Michael Jordan
If you love the game, nobody can take that from you.
Michael Jordan
I heave the basketball I know it sails in a parabola, exhibiting perfect symmetry, which is interrupted by the basket. It's funny, but it is always interrupted by the basket.
Michael Jordan
I smoked my first cigar in 1991, when we won the championship. Up to that point, I had never smoked a cigar, never smoked anything.
Michael Jordan
When I step onto the court, I don't have to think about anything. If I have a problem off the court, I find that after I play, my mind is clearer and I can come up with a better solution. It's like therapy. It relaxes me and allows me to solve problems.
Michael Jordan
I hope the millions of people I've touched have the optimism and desire to share their goals and hard work and persevere with a positive attitude.
Michael Jordan
Being nervous isn't bad. It just means something important is happening.
Michael Jordan
I want to be perceived as a guy who played his best in all facets, not just scoring. A guy who loved challenges.
Michael Jordan
You know what I think? Very few people play because they love the game. Most of them play because they make good money. They keep playing because of the money. I could care less about it. If I don't love the game, no check is going to keep me playing.
Michael Jordan
Every time I feel tired while I am exercising and training, I close my eyes to see that picture, to see that list with my name. This usually motivates me to work again.
Michael Jordan
We're not winning because of talent. We're just beating bad teams.
Michael Jordan
