I lost all feeling a long time ago. Basketball is basketball. It doesn't matter what floor I'm on.

Gilbert Arenas

Seven times have I despised my soul: The sixth time when she despised the ugliness of a face, and knew not that it was one of her own masks.

Khalil Gibran

For a long time, I thought I was going to play basketball. There's not many 6-4 white guys playing the three spot in the NBA, so I realized I probably didn't have much of a future in basketball and that football was probably going to be my best bet.

Sam Bradford

Chris Mullin

Eight minutes is a long time in basketball.

Kevin Knox

I have, I must admit, despised the English countryside for much of my life - despised it and avoided it for its want of danger and adventure.

Jim Crace

There are many men who are forgotten, who are despised, and who are trampled on by their fellows, but there never was a man who was so despised as the everlasting God has been!

Charles Spurgeon

Johnny Mathis

For as long as I could remember, I've wanted to play basketball at the University of North Carolina. Funny thing is, there was a long period of time when I wasn't sure how much they wanted me.

Harrison Barnes

Malcolm Fraser, in the marrow of his bones, despised racism. He despised people who discriminated against other people because they were different and in particular because of the colour of their skin, and I don't think there has been a time in Australian politics where there has been more attention to the importance of that value.

George Brandis

Going to the Portland Trail Blazers, who actually took the time to invest in me, was perhaps the best thing that ever happened to me in my career. I got to a small market where I could focus on basketball, basketball, basketball. No distractions.

Clyde Drexler

My connections and roots to this land of Australia - the sea, the reefs, the sky, the stars - come from a time and place that existed long before basketball was invented, and definitely long before the Boomers program was created.

Patty Mills

I've been in basketball a long time, and nobody is more of a competitor than I am.

Steve Alford

He despised causeless affection, just as he despised unearned wealth. They professed to love him for some unknown reason and they ignored all the things for which he could wish to be loved.
