Dennis Rodman

“I'll be the judge of my own manliness.”

“I want to do for rebounds what Michael Jordan did for dunks.”

“The people at the top of the league think they need to rein me in so I don't become another Michael Jordan, somebody they aren't able to mold and shape and make their puppet.”

“I didn't want to be known as Madonna's playboy, her boy toy.”

“You watch some teams these days and you wonder if they just met on the playground and decided to choose up sides.”

“I felt like calling attention to AIDS. I had the AIDS ribbon colored into my hair during the playoffs in '95.”

“The doors fly open when you're a professional athlete.”

“Death has always had a prominent place in my mind. There are times when I think somebody might kill me.”

“The one thing I do that nobody else does is jump three and four times for one rebound.”

“I spent money, I slept with women around the league, but I always kept my mind on the game.”

“I go out with white women. This makes a lot of people unhappy, mostly black women.”
