More quotes by Michael Jordan
If I had been playing for money I would have complained a long time ago that I was underpaid.
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
I missed 9000 shots in my career, lost almost 300 games and missed the shot to win the game 26 times.
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
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
Failure gave me strength. Pain was my motivation
Michael Jordan

Michael Jordan
We had to be to the stadium at six o'clock for home games, and traffic was so bad it would take us an hour and fifteen or an hour and thirty minutes to drive. So now I'm sitting in a car for almost an hour and a half and I'm very tense. I'm worried about the traffic. So I started smoking a cigar going to the games.
Michael Jordan
Sometimes you need to get hit in the head to realize that you're in a fight.
Michael Jordan
I didn't come here to be average.
Michael Jordan
If you don't back it up with performance and hard work, talking doesn't mean a thing.
Michael Jordan
I don't do things half-heartedly. Because I know if I do, I can expect half-hearted results. Most people get it the honest way by setting their goals and committing themselves to achieving their goals. That's the only way I did it anyway. Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships.
Michael Jordan
I know fear is an obstacle for some people, but it is an illusion to me . . . Failure always made me try harder next time.
Michael Jordan
The game is my wife. It demands loyalty and responsibility, and it gives me back fulfillment and peace.
Michael Jordan
Sometimes I wonder what it will be like to look back on all this. Whether it will seem real.
Michael Jordan
If you are confident you have done everything possible to prepare yourself, then there is nothing to fear.
Michael Jordan
Basketball isn't my job.
