This is something that's very special; people saying they watch me play who are now turning professional.

Overall, I think I'm in pretty good shape, but I'm not really someone that is gung-ho or a fitness fanatic.

I don't like the same old thing all the time.

I never thought I'd play soccer past high school, so to go from that team to actually being most-capped and three World Cups is pretty special.

I don't know if my hairstyles reflect that, but I am someone who enjoys change.

The referee will now keep track of the time on the field and the shootouts have finally been banned.

We didn't think we were a fourth-place team. For us to beat the first-place team in the West and the first-place team in the East shows the dedication and determination that we had.

I am both honored and blessed to have had such a wonderful career with the LA Galaxy and I am thankful for everything the club, the fans and the community has done for me and my family.

You are going to have hostile crowds and the fans are going to find out where you are staying and keep you awake at night. They are going to use everything possible.

Being out in the heat for two weeks can definitely drain your energy.

I turned 24 in the middle of my first World Cup and it was quite an unbelievable experience. It's really hard for words to do it justice.

I have seen so many lands vanish in my wake, torn down like stage sets. What survives of them? An image as fleeting as a dream: whatever beauties I discovered, I already knew by heart.

When the dream that was no longer can be, you have to dream a different dream.

What I'm going to do is pry every stinking tag off these f.ing chairs and make a f.ing collar and throw that cat right in Connor's puked-up face. Pale turd.

The definition of a good story is one that remains with you long after you've turned that last page.

Every great brand is like a great story.

See you on the other side, kid.

It is ironic that a nation that has never experienced a coup d'etat should be so obsessed with the idea of conspiracy.

Love never goes away; it just changes form.

People are getting attention for doing nothing, for behaving poorly, for abusing themselves in public and being abused, exploiting themselves. I find it vulgar and I find it awful.

What fools these mortals be. (Acheron)
