I couldnt change who I am; I couldnt change the kind of player I am.

I am somebody who... - I'm not saying I'm perfect, but I need that freedom, that ability to make mistakes out there. Because there's a fine line between making a mistake or being brilliant.

Do you have the heart to push yourself? If you don't, find a way to get it because talent will only get you so far. You've got to be hungry. You've got to have heart. That's just reality.

If you are passionate about something, that will enable you to be the best you can be.

Its not like you make a decision and everything inside you is 100 percent happy.

Believe in yourself, your abilities and your own potential. Never let self-doubt hold you captive. You are worthy of all that you dream of and hope for.

To leave out beautiful sunsets is the secret of good taste.

Monsieur, you must be mad!Box Five can never be hadFor money, love or the world ...

People need patience. It takes time to build a brand.

I am not mad. I am eccentric perhaps--at least certain people say so; but as regards my profession. I am very much as one says, 'all there.

For in our family an experience was not finished, not truly experienced, unless written down or shared with another.

If a man possesses a repentant spirit his sins will disappear, but if he has an unrepentant spirit his sins will continue and condemn him for their sake forever.

If there are people who do it better than you, why do it?

Father, perfect my trust;Let my spirit feel in death,That her feet are firmly setOn the rock of a living faith!

Imagination is the power of the mind over the possibilities of things.
