More quotes by 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'm not out there sweating for three hours every day just to find out what it feels like to sweat.
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
I dont take pictures with Niggas
Michael Jordan
Heart is what separates the good from the great.
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

I don't know about flying, but sometimes it feels like I have these little wings on my feet.
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
I think the players win the championship, and the organization has something to do with it, don't get me wrong. But don't try to put the organization above the players.
Michael Jordan
The harder I prepare, the luckier I seem to get.
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
Success doesn't stop when you get there
Michael Jordan
For a competitive junkie like me, golf is a great solution because it smacks you in the face every time you think you have accomplished something. That to me has taken over a lot of the energy and competitiveness for basketball.
Michael Jordan
