I'm close to six feet, I like to think.

I'm focused on myself and on what I've got to do...I'm just trying to get back on track and keep this positive mindset.

People out there said I was too small. It's those kinds of moments that pushed me to be where I'm at right now.

My father-he pretty much taught me everything I know. He still pushes me to be the best I can.

The more torque I can come up with, the better.

I've learned a lot about being in the public eye. I'm certainly handling things more maturely now, I'm not getting as scared as easily.

You don't come up expecting to be a fan favorite. When I was a rookie, I was just trying to make a name for myself, but people already knew who I was and already had expectations for me.

Since baseball is my favorite sport, it's easy to go out and do what I do.

I will send a fastball into the cyber hole.

Nobody wants to lose. But I don't care what my win-loss record is. At the end of the day, I don't look at it.

My mother was the greatest philosopher. I am nothing but a reflection of her imagination.

All these books are published in Heaven.

Life is nothing unless death has been faced down.

My experience from 20 years of Africa is that the seemingly impossible is possible.

I won't be satisfied until people want to hear me sing without looking at me. Of course, that doesn't mean I want them to stop looking.

My favourite words are possibilities, opportunities and curiosity.

If inflation-adjusted interest rates decline in a given country, its currency is likely to decline.

There is only one caste... the caste of humanity. There is only one religion... the religion of love. There is only one language... the language of the heart.

Not even the gods fight against necessity.
