Quotes of 1988

Quotes taken from the authors in 1988

I'm just trying to grow. That's one thing I told myself is, 'Don't worry about who people say is the best player.'

Kevin Durant

People always think women meet us in the hotel lobby, but it's the opposite. The majority of the time, you go out to eat with your teammates, then rest for the next day's game. It's not a vacation - most guys view the road as a business trip.

Kevin Durant

With everything I do, I just try to be myself.

Kevin Durant

I feel good doing it. It's not like guys are stripping me at half-court or I'm just losing the ball dribbling. I think I'm handling the ball pretty well, just trying to make good passes, man.

Kevin Durant

Every memory I had growing up was involving a basketball. I didn't go to the prom and stuff like that. It was always basketball for me.

Kevin Durant

There is nothing wrong with dedication and goals, but if you focus on yourself, all the lights fade away and you become a fleeting moment in life.

Pete Maravich

I accomplished what I set out to do, but I lost my discipline and my career.

Pete Maravich

It's hard when your father's the coach. Sometimes you don't know where one leaves off and the other begins.

Pete Maravich

My life had no meaning at all. I found only brief interludes of satisfaction. It was like my whole life had been about my whole basketball career.

Pete Maravich

I don't want to play 10 years and then die of a heart attack when I'm 40.

Pete Maravich

A fellow doesn't last long on what he has done. He has to keep on delivering.

Carl Hubbell

As far as control and stuff is concerned, I never had any more in my life than for that All-Star game in 1934.

Carl Hubbell

If I'm playing cards for pennies, I want to win.

Carl Hubbell

Besides, there were 50,000 fans or more there, and they wanted to see the best you've got. There was an obligation to the people, as well as to ourselves, to go all out.

Carl Hubbell

It was funny, when I thought of it afterward, how Ruth and Gehrig looked as they stood there. The Babe must have been waiting for me to get the ball up a little so he could get his bat under it.

Carl Hubbell

I thought I had gotten second, but I didn't, so I was really happy.

Carly Patterson

I guess I'm kind of used to it because it's always been that way for me.

Carly Patterson

The only thing I really, really want is for the U.S. to win again. Just to win another team gold. And, of course I would really want to win an all-around gold.

Carly Patterson

I think it helps me. You know, I've got two more meets under my belt, and that's always a good thing.

Carly Patterson

Well, first I have to make the team, of course.
