The central belief of every moron is that he is the victim of a mysterious conspiracy against his common rights and true deserts.
When you come in as the second overall pick, the last thing you want is for guys to think you believe you've made it. Because that's the farthest thing from the truth.
Love is like liquor, the drunker and more impotent you are, the stronger and smarter you think yourself and the surer you are of your rights.
Every once in a while, I'll have a 'Do you know who I am?' moment, at least in my head. I hate that.
To be vain of one's rank or place is to show that one is below it.
People get successful and they start saying, 'Well of course I am! I was chosen! I'm special!' No, you're not.
Sometimes people take it for granted that they had success, especially nowadays when you have instant stardom. A lot of people feel entitlement and nobody is entitled to anything.
If you think you're good enough, then you find it preposterous when somebody doesn't acknowledge that... That's propelled me in many ways - maybe thinking I deserve things that I don't at some time. But I'm always willing to put in the work.
