I'd rather just stay quiet and play the game. Winning is hard enough as it is.

Leadership doesn't come from age.

Football is my love. Football is what I'm going to do. I'm a football player first.

Life is short. You better get out there and do what you want to do while you can.

Adversity in life teaches you.

I'm hungry. I want the ball. That's the feeling you want. When you get that feeling, you can't be stopped.

I've come to realize that the thing in life that's important, the reason we're all here, is to love and do well for each other.

I'm my own biggest critic. I'm the one who has to go home and look at myself in the mirror.

I don't like second place; I'm out there trying to win everything.

I was awful at football when I was a little kid. I didn't have the aggressiveness. I was just a nice kid. I didn't want to hurt anyone.

But every spiteful word she ever wrote him was effortless love clenched in her fists. Her heart screaming for stability in this fiery game of desire.

I used to think that losing made you more hungry and determined but after my success at the Olympics and the U.S. Open I realise that winning is the biggest motivation.

No fate could rob us of our own-- No circumstance can make it less; What time removes was but a loan, For what was ours we still possess.

I'm always being asked to play roles or characters that I don't really resemble.

I leave the world in terrible turmoil. I come back, same turmoil. Nothing at all different. Well, outfits are a little different.

Most of the news about the state of the environment is pretty ugly. This is frightening for me personally, but actually motivational for me artistically.

We didn't talk about anything heavy or light. We were just there together. And that was enough

A pretty wife is something for the fastidious vanity of a roue to retire upon.

I didn't look at any of the newspapers, I look at the pictures sometimes, but apart from that I don't read them.
