I definitely care about what I look like, certainly when I am going out in public, doing an appearance or something, but when I'm home, I'm all sweatpants, all the time.

If you do the bare minimum, expect bare minimum results. You want to be great, work to be great. Nothing just happens

Success isn't owned. It's leased and rent is due every day.

Some people chase money. Some people chase fame. Some chase greatness - and that's what I'm trying to do.

Greatness is earned, not given.

Heard someone say, 'I can't wait until I can finally say I've made it.' The day you think you've 'made it' is the day you begin your decline.

Right now, I am a football player and I will sacrifice whatever is necessary to be the best.

They kill good trees to put out bad newspapers.

For the first time in history, my community has had to use air conditioners. Imagine that, air conditioners in the Arctic.

With a little effort, anything can be shown to connect with anything else: existence is infinitely cross-referenced.

I'm LEP. A captain. No rent-a-cop gnome is going to stand in the way of my orders.

An artist painting a picture should have at his side a man with a club to hit him over the head when the picture is finished.

I am not a player to have regrets. I should have stayed at certain clubs longer, but I don't regret.

Once you put human life in human hands, you have started on a slippery slope that knows no boundaries.

...the lesson of forever and ever is that knowing a man's mind ain't knowing the man.

We're either nothing or a God's regret.
