I've had well-paid jobs, but in comparison to what footballers earn, I've not earned serious money.

If you constantly dwell on the past that's where you end up living.

I've always been very hopeful but I also know that as long as you've got a good work ethic, almost anything is achievable and I learned that in the armed forces.

I like to live life in an understated way because that's who I am - an ordinary guy who has experienced an extraordinary journey.

After I was injured, I had several good examples of "Get on with it, stop whinging and life can be what you make it," because the world doesn't stop turning when you have a boo-boo.

When I bought out my first autobiography I received the biggest tax bill of my life.

I prefer cash but so many places only take cards these days, it forces you down a line and I don't like that.

Recovery is a bit like an addiction; you take it day by day. If you set yourself too many goalposts, you'll have problems.

When I get angry, I start thinking about the people involved and they don't deserve my time.

Everyone in my family was a very serious worker, always with a determination to provide for each other.

Becoming a public figure gave me a platform to help people.

We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that. We want to live by each other's happiness, not by each other's misery.

Which would be worse - to live as a monster, or to die as a good man?

I'm glad that young black people are successful with the music. I'm not a hater.

The goal is not to speculate on what might happen, but to imagine what you can make happen.

In any nation in which people's rights have been subordinated to the rights of the few, in any totalitarian nation, the first institution to be dismantled is the jury. I was, I am, afraid.

I think faith is the one common denominator between everything that goes on at the race track - a faith in Christ.

I'm sorry you're angry is not an apology.

Faith is not a commodity that you either have or don't have enough of, or the right kind of. It's an ongoing process. The opposite of faith is despair.
