I'm a country guy from Mississippi who keeps it simple.

When I get on the field, I feel unstoppable.

I'm proud of where I come from. A lot of people leave Mississippi, and their claim to fame is somewhere else. But I have so many moral values that made me the person I am now.

With the physical mindset I play the game with, I expect to get hurt.

Pressure is what you make of it. It makes me play harder.

The tide has changed. You have to be able to improvise in today's NFL.

I actually enjoy the pain. That's what gives me the fire inside to get up and keep going.

I've never believed anyone could put more pressure on me than I put on myself. People expect great things from me. I expect great things from myself.

I want people to say when No. 9 was out on the field, he did everything humanly possible to win a ballgame.

I think I've always had the abilities, but the object has been to perform as well as I can.

The sense of urgency is real for me, because the window of opportunity is closing. Gotta get back to the Super Bowl, gotta get back there and win it.

The measure of civilized behavior is compassion.

If you speak of beauty, you are at once suspected of...kitsch.

I don't know how this guy knew how much money I was making. I didn't know how much money I was making.

I don't regret any tweets. I'm not a tweeter and deleter. So I have no regrets.

Dare to have it out with God, and ask Him to show you whether or not all is focused on Christ and His Glory.

The world changes when there's music in it.

When the creative spirit stirs, it animates a style of being: a lifetime filled with the desire to innovate, to explore new ways of doing things, to bring dreams to reality.

I understand the pain of withdrawal, too. I wouldn't want that on anybody.

I am a huge fan of Alan Furst. Furst is the best in the business--the most talented espionage novelist of our generation.
