Famous quotes by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar:

"I'm not comfortable being preachy, but more people need to start spending as much time in the library as they do on the basketball court."

"It's hard for young players to see the big picture. They just see three or four years down the road."

"If they took the idea that they could escape poverty through education, I think it would make a more basic and long-lasting change in the way things happen. What we need are positive, realistic goals and the willingness to work. Hard work and practical goals."

"Your mind is what makes everything else work."

"You can't win unless you learn how to lose."

"You have to be able to center yourself, to let all of your emotions go... Don't ever forget that you play with your soul as well as your body."

"I can do something else besides stuff a ball through a hoop. My biggest resource is my mind."

"One man can be a crucial ingredient on a team, but one man cannot make a team."

"I try to do the right thing at the right time. They may just be little things, but usually they make the difference between winning and losing."

"You can't win if you don't play as a unit."

"I did a book in 1996, an overview of black history. In that process I became more aware of a lot of the black inventors of the 19th century."

"I want people to understand that I intend to continue living and doing all the things that I love to do up until the end. And the end is by no means rushing up on me."

"A lot of young players don't really know much about the history of the game and a lot of them are missing out on what the game is all about, especially the whole concept of sportsmanship and teamwork."

"I feel that there has been progress made since I was a boy on matters of race, but we have a long way to go."

"I am highly offended by the total lack of acknowledgement of my contribution to Laker success."

"My biggest accomplishment has been making a transition from athlete to author."

"I think black Americans expect too much from individual black Americans in terms of changing the status quo."

"In athletics there's always been a willingness to cheat if it looks like you're not cheating. I think that's just a quirk of human nature."

"The transition was difficult. It's hard to stop something that you've enjoyed and that has been very rewarding."

"If not for the success that medicine has made, I might be part of a much different story right now."
