You don’t wanna mess up what you’ve done. It’s like Jordan coming back: You’re scared to mess up the legacy.

I don’t care about having a legacy, I don’t care about being remembered. The most important thing to me is, while we’re here, while we’re having fun, while we’re sleeping, breathng oxygen, living life, falling in love, having pain and having joy…what can we do with our voice to make things easier, to help someone to make it better for our kids.

What motivates me year in, year out, is the love for the sport and the legacy I want to leave for the present and next generation.

We get one opportunity in life, one chance at life to do whatever you’re going to do, and lay your foundation and make whatever mark you’re going to make. Whatever legacy you’re going to leave; leave your legacy!

Do whatever you got to do to make sure you chase your legacy every second of your life.

Ownership, that’s what you give your kids. That’s your legacy.

I have always told myself, “Do your duty and disappear.” As far as legacy goes, I want my kids to work for themselves. I feel a legacy should be earned and not given.

The day will come — and it is not far off — when the legacy of Lincoln will finally be fulfilled at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, when a black man or woman will sit in the Oval Office. When that day comes, the most remarkable thing about it will be how naturally it occurs.

You don’t wanna mess up what you’ve done. It’s like Jordan coming back: You’re scared to mess up the legacy.

The greatest legacy one can pass on to one’s children and grandchildren is not money or other material things accumulated in one’s life, but rather a legacy of character and faith.

We’ll see what happens when I no longer exist.

We need to recognize that the situation in Ferguson speaks to broader challenges that we still face as a nation. The fact is, in too many parts of this country, a deep distrust exists between law enforcement and communities of color. Some of this is the result of the legacy of racial discrimination in this country.

In the white community, the path to a more perfect union means acknowledging that what ails the African-American community does not just exist in the minds of black people; that the legacy of discrimination – and current incidents of discrimination, while less overt than in the past – are real and must be addressed.

A man’s legacy is determined by how the story ends.

Legacy is a stupid thing! I don’t want a legacy.

You learn after you’ve been in the business for a while that it’s not getting your face recognized that’s the payoff. It’s having your film remembered.

A beautiful body perishes, but a work of art dies not.

Let the blood and the bruises define your legacy.

The Hamilton name will live on way beyond me now, which I’m very happy to be a part of.

Ignore all hatred and criticism. Live for what you create, and die protecting it.

Never be afraid to be kicked in the teeth. Let the blood and the bruises define your legacy.

We are Madrid, and we want to define our own philosophy. We don’t want to be compared to anyone.

All I dreamed of when I became a footballer was to play for a club as big as Real Madrid. It’s maybe the most famous and best club in the history of football.

I want to leave a legacy of greatness.
