QUOTES BY Maya Moore


I'm pretty chill when I'm not on the court.

I think our criminal justice system has two problems. We have systematic problems and we have people problems. So if the hearts of people are not about justice than any system you have won't work.

I'm very hard on myself. I'm the first person that'll say, 'Yeah I messed up.' And then I'll try to go out and fix it.

I listen to music on the bus or in the car on the way to a game.

I loved watching Cynthia Cooper growing up when she played for the Houston Comets.

That's kind of what my mindset has always been, just focus on every day, and making the most of each day.

One thing my fans don't know about me is how much I love guacamole! But it has to be a little chunky and just a little bit spicy.

I think a winner has to be a master of preparation, they have to be a master of connection, extremely competitive and have really high standards for themselves and the people around them.
