I don't suppose Bryant had anything like the physical punishment that Wilt took. Wilt's achievement was a feat of unbelievable endurance. He really had to work to get open, to get those guys off of him. Everybody in the league was tired of him scoring 50 points a game against them. They roughed him up in that game.
Joe Ruklick
It was at spring training in Arizona and it was my third season and the Warriors were doing really lousy. I walked into the A's press box, and Bill walked up to me and introduced himself, and said he empathized with me. He remembered when the Warriors traded Wilt Chamberlain to Philadelphia in the 1960s, and he said to stay positive.
Tim Roye

Be the green grass above me, with showers and dewdrops wet; and if thou wilt, remember, and if thou wilt, forget.

James Worthy
Tho' lost to sight, to mem'ry dear/ Thou ever wilt remain.

I never got a chance to see (Wilt Chamberlain or Bill Russell), but from the (television) footage I've seen and what I've seen now, I think Shaq is probably the best of all time.
Michael Sweetney
Wilt and Magic were not only nice to me when we did interviews, but both remembered my name. You don't expect that from star-like people.

If thou wilt ease thine heart / Of love and all its smart, / Then sleep, dear, sleep.
Thomas Lovell Beddoes
You're in that time of the year when their bodies are absolutely starting to wilt, and you're on the road and you're struggling. It's easy to take a step back mentally. This is where we need to take steps forward mentally. We weren't able to do that.
Randy Dunton
We've also found wilt in yellow beans, black beans and Great Northerns.

Bobby Bowden
Work and thou wilt bless the dayEre the toil be done;They that work not cannot pray,Cannot feel the sun.
