"[About online anger:] It doesn't translate to the real world. I just walked through two very packed airports and did nothing but take like 45 pictures. Nothing but a positive response."

"I think if you're on this earth for such a limited amount of time, how insane is it to sit behind your phone and computer and complain about something you don't like when you have the world at your hands of all the things you could do? Like, what an absolute waste of energy, time, and emotion."

"Imagine you see a street performer. They're playing violin on the street corner, they've got their case out whith cash. Say you fucking hate violins. Violins drive you nuts. Maybe he's not even good at playing violin. What do you do? Ya keep walking. No sane, decent human being stops and goes 'You're fucking aweful dude. Kill yourself! What are you doing out here? You're making my life miserable until I just look a different direction.' That's an insane thing to do. And most people know not do that."

"[If he has had any negative response to his comedy offline:] Never. Not once. Never once has somebody come up to me and said 'Hey, I didn't like the thing you said.'"

"I’m sure everyone is different, but I believe the performance will always be stronger if you’re working with another actor."

"I don’t know however how I’ll react when a bunch of maniacs take over my town, but I guess I will let you know!"

"I’ve never been one to post anything mean, degrading, or just weird. It’s not in my blood. These days, most people are super conscious about what they share, which is great. I’ve always tried to be positive on social media and my approach hasn’t changed. If I see someone having a bad day, I want to be there to let them know it’ll get better. There’s a lot of noise on social media, a lot of negativity, which sucks. I’ve never been able to understand or wrap my head around it, but then I have to remember there are good people, too. That’s how I see social media."

"First time directors - they may not make good movies all the time but they are always the best directors to work for because they’re always so excited, always so committed to what they’re trying to do."

"I enjoyed it from a very early age. When I had to make my own living after college, I decided to give doing what I enjoyed most a shot as a profession. It worked out and I’ve never had to “work” for a living since. If I hadn’t gotten so lucky, there were plenty of options open to me being, after all, a young educated white male in America."

"Well part of the reason I have that many credits is I don’t get in my director’s face too much. I just do what I’m told. But I’ve also been burned by first time directors. Anthony and I talked about it and, you know, he thought he was picking me and I thought I was picking him and we hit it off. He’s very visual which is exactly what you want for this."

"I mean, there is a certain amount of exposition you have to have in films and how that exposition is handled tells you whether it's a good script or not, whether it's a good filmmaker or not. You know, the more exposition that can be handled without a character speaking it, the more thematic metaphors that you can do visually, to me that’s a better situation."

"I'd hate to be a teetotaller. Imagine getting up in the morning and knowing that's as good as you're going to feel all day."

"LeBron shirks responsibility on the court when his team loses and he refuses to take the blame for just about anything. He’s not a leader."

""Hands up! Don't shoot!" and "I can’t breathe!" became mantras of the growing movement to stem police violence, and the systemic racism at the core of the problem. The phrases began appearing in popular culture, showing the speed and depth with which the movement was growing. Professional athletes in the United States are followed closely by millions of fans. So, when basketball superstar LeBron James of the Cleveland Cavaliers warmed up before a game wearing a T-shirt emblazoned "I Can't Breathe," people noticed."

"LA Lakers star LeBron James paid tribute to Chadwick Boseman before the Lakers playoff game against the Portland Trailblazers by taking a knee during the National Anthem and crossing his arms across his chest to give the Wakanda Forever salute."

"Growing up as a black kid, you had superheroes that you looked up to, but they weren’t black. You had Batman, you had Superman, you had Spider Man, and so on and so on. And for Ryan Coogler and for that cast, and for him himself to be able to make Black Panther...it actually felt real. It actually felt like we finally had our Black superhero and nobody can touch us."

"I have so many words to praise Kyrie that I end up with absolutely none because it's just. It's so. He's the most gifted player the NBA has ever seen. He has the best gifts I've ever seen of any NBA player."

"To see [Bronny James] handle it, you know, with such class and so, you know, just, like, self awareness and just staying even killed is just a remarkable thing, man, and super proud of him."

"We are already limited in the sense that given that type of power, that type of stage that he had, and especially in that industry. You don’t see many black male and female actors being able to put on that stage. For him to be as transcendent as he was. But then you add on the fact that growing up as a black kid, you had superheroes that you looked up to, but they weren’t black. You had Batman, you had Superman, you had Spider Man, and so on and so on. And for him"

"CLEVELAND! This is for you!"

"No matter how much money you have, no matter how famous you are, no matter how many people admire you, being black in America is tough."

"All the people that were rooting for me to fail… at the end of the day, tomorrow they have to wake up and have the same life that they had before they woke up today. … They got the same personal problems they had today. And I’m going to continue to live the way I want to live and continue to do the things I want to do."

"Crazy. I just wanted to suck him off and everyone's mad. God sees everything!"

"It’s hard for me to congratulate somebody after you just lose to them. … I’m a winner. It’s not being a poor sport or anything like that. If somebody beats you up, you’re not going to congratulate them. That doesn’t make sense to me. I’m a competitor. That’s what I do. It doesn’t make sense for me to go over and shake somebody’s hand."

"Not two, not three, not four, not five, not six, not seven."

"This fall, and this was a very tough decision for me, but this fall I will be taking my talents to South Beach and play with the Miami Heat."

"He really is one of a kind. That kid is special and will be the next big thing, I promise you that. The way he moves and his athleticism reminds me a lot about myself."

"A LeBron James team is always looking out for young new talent."

"He has a disgraceful history of inciting race mobs and having zero gravitas as a public figure when commenting on current events or anything remotely related to "civil rights." And speaking of history… LeBron also has a long history of hating white people. It’s true. As he describes it, he disliked white folks because he was both envious and fearful of them. LeBron was filled with racism and hate at a very young age, brought on by his environment, circumstances, community, and other influences."

"Laura Ingraham was right — it’s time for LeBron to shut up and dribble."

"Alongside my tag team partner [Keith Olbermann/Kenny Mayne], I'm merely Dan Patrick."

"(Dare I say) En fuego. (originally delivered as El fuego)"

"You can't stop him, you can only hope to contain him."

"Gives him the high cheese."

"The WHIIIIFFFF! (or The WHIIII... on check swings)"

"NOTHING but the bottom of the [net/cup]!"

"[Golf/Goff] shots, nothing but [golf/goff] shots."

"Soft as church music."

"When SportsCenter does an about face..."

"That's why they don't play games on paper. They play them inside television sets. Let's go to the highlights."

"It's the Big Show..."

"I'd like to see it again, please."

"Do you wanna play with fire, scarecrow?"

"BRRRRRRNG!"

"Goodbye. Game over. Drive home safely."

"Freeze it!"

"We've done all that we can do."

"He visits the bird sanctuary."

"Defense wins championships!"

"Now to the third quarter, because the highlights are better there."
