More quotes by Michael Jordan
You don't show up on game day and expect to be great. Greatness happens in practice. You have to expect things of yourself before you can do them.
Michael Jordan
The basketball court for me, during a game, is the most peaceful place I can imagine. On the basketball court, I worry about nothing. When I'm out there, no one can bother me.
Michael Jordan
Not every flying hero has a cape.
Michael Jordan
How many times have your parents told you not to do things, and the next thing you know, you go do it? And you realized you shouldn't have done it.
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 basically expect anything. Isn't that wild? I used to surprise myself a lot: certain moves, how I'd get out of trouble. But at some point, you accept the talent that you have, you accept your creativity.
Michael Jordan
I realize that I'm black, but I like to be viewed as a person, and this is everybody's wish.
Michael Jordan
I Own the guy guarding me
Michael Jordan
Being nervous isn't bad. It just means something important is happening.
Michael Jordan
Basketball isn't just about the bright lights, packed arenas and highlight reels. Basketball is a way of life. Basketball is a relationship between you and the ball, you and your teammates. If you love the game, nobody can take that from you.
Michael Jordan
I can't speak for the future. I have no crystal ball.
Michael Jordan
Gambling is legal and betting is legal, for what I bet.
Michael Jordan
A coach is someone that sees beyond your limits and guides you to greatness!
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
The game is my wife. It demands loyalty and responsibility, and it gives me back fulfillment and peace.
Michael Jordan
I make shoes for white suburban kids, not the poor black kids. That would be like opening a restaurant for people without stomachs.
Michael Jordan
I failed so therefore I succeed.
Michael Jordan
There are no shortcuts. I approached practices the same way I approached games. You can't turn it on and off like a faucet. I couldn't dog it during practice and then, when I needed that extra push late in the game, expect it to be there. Very few people get anywhere by taking shortcuts.
Michael Jordan
If you don't back it up with performance and hard work, talking doesn't mean a thing.
Michael Jordan
I can remember a game, we were down with about 5 to 10 points, I go off about 25 points, we come back and win the game, we're walking off the floor. Tex (Winter) looks at me and says There's no I in team! I looked at Tex and say, There's not, but there's an 'I' in win!
