There ain't no problem that some other dude didn't have 1,000 years ago.
The first eight years of schooling was with all white people. So that helped me to understand how white people think. I think that transition is what helped me bridge the gap, because that's what my success has really been about: bridging the gap between the black community and the white community.
Give me about 10 years, I'm going to run for President. If I can squeeze in an NBA championship before that, I'll do it.
Goofy was the word that was used most often by my sisters because I've been this tall ever since I was 12 years old.
I met my father for the first time when I was 28 years old. I made up my mind that when I had children, my children were going to know who their father was.
I feel like I could run for President. People often laugh, but if I set my mind to it, within the next 15 years I could be in the White House.
There's a certain delusional quality that all successful people have to have. You have to believe that something different than what has happened for the last 50 million years of history - you have to believe that something different can happen.
Why is life at this point in the twentieth century so focused upon the very beginning of life and the very end of life? What about the 80 years we have to live between those two inexorable bookends?
I have no idea what my limits are. I believe that if I set my mind to it, within the next fifteen years, I would be the President of the United States.
Resolve to make at least one person happy every day, and then in ten years you may have made three thousand, six hundred and fifty persons happy, or brightened a small town by your contribution to the fund of general enjoyment.
About every four years, someone says to me, 'I've got a friend who looks exactly like you.' What can you say to this?
I read 'Crime and Punishment' years ago and don't recall the details of it, but I do retain a strong sense of the creeping paranoia and panic.
When anyone asks me how I can best describe my experiences of nearly forty years at sea, I merely say uneventful. I have never been in an accident of any sort worth speaking about....I never saw a wreck and have never been wrecked, nor was I ever in any predicament that threatened to end in disaster of any sort.
