I have to make a lot of decisions that aren't in the best interests of individuals, whether they be owners, club executives, players.

The same mistakes can never be repeated.

The highest standards of conduct must be met by everyone in the NFL because it is a privilege to represent the NFL, not a right.

No one is above the game or the rules that govern it. Respect for the game and the people who participate in it will not be compromised.

I spent a lot of time in the school psychologist's office. I didn't apply myself. My mother thought I had learning disabilities.

My job is to protect the integrity of the NFL and to make sure the game is as safe as possible.

We need to ensure the poorest in the planet - who will be hardest hit by the financial crisis - are not forgotten.

Music is careful attention paid to ongoing experience.

And that's when he finally tells me his name is Ernest. I'm thinking of giving it away, though. Ernest is so dull, and Hemingway? Who wants a Hemingway?

Those who bless and serve life find a place of belonging and strength, a refuge.

I don't practise any religion but I am deeply interested in the answers that mankind has come up with to explain the human situation.
