If you put in the work, put in the time, put in the effort, you're going to reap the benefits.

I'm the best corner in the game. When you try me with a sorry receiver like Crabtree, that is the result you are going to get. Don't you ever talk about me.

Work hard and believe in yourself even when nobody else believes in you.

Your circumstances don't dictate your future. ... Your circumstances don't limit you.

I kind of go to the beat of my own drum.

Sometimes you have to be somebody you're not.

I don't want to be an island. I want to be more of a tourist attraction. You stop here, I take your money and you go.

Both criticism and praise is part of putting yourself out there.

If I don't have the books to read, if I don't have the information to study, how can I succeed? That's a lot of the stuff I would focus on if I was elected because I think knowledge is power.

Don't you open your mouth about the best!

We’ve been in all the big games, we’ve been in small games, and we’ve treated them all the same and I think that mentality is what’s helped us get to the point where we are now.

Sooner or later we're all gone, so no one bothers getting attached.

No matter how much technology changes scouting, no matter how much free agency and big TV contracts change the business of baseball, I hope and pray that the heart of the game will never change.

If models are made for modeling, thick girls are made for cuddling.

I don't dig staying in one groove.

... there is something about everything that you can be glad about, if you keep hunting long enough to find it.

Luckily, I haven't been offered any $300 million movies that I hate. So I'm not in that predicament just yet.

My role models are people who can do things; I say to myself, 'I wish I could do that.'

But everyone I know reaches a point where they throw out their arms and go beserk for a while; otherwise you never know what your limits are. I was just trying to find mine.

It is not human nature to enjoy what we get with no effort.

The hint half guessed, the gift half understood, is incarnation. Here the impossible union of spheres of existence is actual. Here the past and future are conquered and reconciled.
