Pic of the Day: “The captain says it’s like spelling to a fence post.” “Does he now? It’s how I watch you talk to your baby.” “The baby?” “Any baby. It’s gibberish. Grown-up gibberish. Baby-talk gibberish. Do they understand one word of it to start? Somehow they begin to if they hear it. I’m letting Helen hear it.” “Other children are not impaired.” “Oh, there’s nothing impaired in her head. It works like a mousetrap.” “Then when will she learn?” “Maybe after a million words.” (60th Anniversary)

Pic of the Day: “Sometimes I jump ahead in our life together, and I see a time near the end. I can predict the future, and everything is settled. And all our lovers and children and friends come back and are welcome. And we have large gatherings where everyone is laughing and playing games. I am older and I see things differently, and I finally understand you. I take care of your dresses, keeping them from dust and ghosts and time.” “Yes, but right now we’re here.” “Yes, of course we are.” “And I’m getting hungry.” (5th Anniversary)

It wouldn’t be fair.” “I didn’t put nothin’ up.” “Yes, you did. You’ve been putting it up your whole life, you just didn’t know it. You know what date is on this coin?” “No.” “1958. It’s been traveling twenty-two years to get here. And now it’s here. And it’s either heads or tails. And you have to say. Call it.” “Look, I need to know what I stand to win.” “Everything.” (15th Anniversary)

Pic of the Day: ♫ “Don’t ever try to judge me, dude / You don’t know what the fuck I’ve been through / But I know something about you / You went to Cranbrook, that’s a private school / What’s the matter, dawg? You embarrassed? / This guy’s a gangster? His real name’s Clarence / And Clarence lives at home with both parents / And Clarence parents have a real good marriage / This guy don’t wanna battle, he’s shook / ‘Cause ain’t no such things as halfway crooks / He’s scared to death, he’s scared to look / At his fucking yearbook; fuck Cranbrook! / Fuck a beat, I’ll go a cappella / Fuck a Papa Doc, fuck a clock, fuck a trailer / Fuck everybody! Fuck y’all if you doubt me! / I’m a piece of fucking white trash, I say it proudly / And fuck this battle, I don’t wanna win, I’m outtie / Here, tell these people something they don’t know about me.” ♫ (20th Anniversary)

Pic of the Day: ♫ “Everybody loves a winner / So nobody loved me / Lady peaceful / Lady happy / That’s what I long to be / Well, all the odds are, they’re in my favor / Something’s bound to begin / It’s gotta happen / Happen sometime / Maybe this time I’ll win.” ♫ (50th Anniversary)

Pic of the Day: “Me? I’m scared of everything. I’m scared of what I saw, I’m scared of what I did, of who I am, and most of all I’m scared of walking out of this room and never feeling the rest of my whole life the way I feel when I’m with you.” (35th Anniversary)

Pic of the Day: “I’ve got this, what, ailment? My doctor, a shrink that I used to go to all the time, he says that in fifty or sixty percent of the cases, a pill really helps. I hate pills. Very dangerous thing, pills. Hate. I’m using the word ‘hate’ here, about pills. Hate. My compliment is, that night when you came over and told me that you would never… all right, well, you were there, you know what you said. Well, my compliment to you is, the next morning, I started taking the pills.” “I don’t quite get how that’s a compliment for me.” “You make me want to be a better man.” “That’s maybe the best compliment of my life.” “Well, maybe I overshot a little, because I was aiming at just enough to keep you from walking out.” (25th Anniversary)

Pic of the Day: “Dear Basketball, from the moment I started rolling my dad’s tube socks and shooting imaginary game-winning shots in the Great Western Forum, I knew one thing was real: I fell in love with you. A love so deep I gave you my all, from my mind & body to my spirit & soul. As a six-year-old boy, deeply in love with you, I never saw the end of the tunnel. I only saw myself running out of one. And so I ran. I ran up and down every court. After every loose ball for you. You asked for my hustle. I gave you my heart. Because it came with so much more. I played through the sweat and hurt. Not because challenge called me. But because YOU called me. I did everything for YOU. Because that’s what you do. When someone makes you feel as alive as you’ve made me feel. You gave a six-year-old boy his Laker dream. And I’ll always love you for it. But I can’t love you obsessively for much longer. This season is all I have left to give. My heart can take the pounding. My mind can handle the grind. But my body knows it’s time to say goodbye. And that’s OK. I’m ready to let you go. I want you to know now. So we both can savor every moment we have left together. The good and the bad. We have given each other all that we have. And we both know, no matter what I do next, I’ll always be that kid with the rolled up socks. Garbage can in the corner. :05 seconds on the clock. Ball in my hands. 5… 4… 3… 2… 1. Love you always, Kobe.” (5th Anniversary)
