Many people think they want things but they don't really have the strength the discipline. They are weak. I believe that you get what you want if you want it badly enough.

My greatest strength is common sense. I'm really a standard brand - like Campbell's tomato soup or Baker's chocolate.

Only the gentle are ever really strong.

Does anybody really think that they didn't get what they had because they didn't have the talent or the strength or the endurance or the commitment?

I really think more fledgling novelists - and many current and even established novelists - should get out into the real world and cover local politics sports culture and crime and write it up on deadline.

I have three kids and I'm a coach for a lot of their sports so I'm around them a lot but I see friends of mine with older kids and they don't really interact so much other than giving them a place to live.

I used to play football at school and I enjoyed really physical sports but I now try to avoid any sports that might build up different muscles. That might have a negative impact on my archery.

I played a lot of sports when I was a kid so I get in that ballgame mindset of being really really respectful but at same time saying to yourself 'Don't back down a single inch hang with these guys if you can.' If they throw it high and tight you have to stand in there you can't take yourself out of that moment.

Movies TV sports come and go but what you stand for is what people remember. Mandela Martin Luther King John Kennedy are people who really stood for something and were willing to die for it. You don't see a whole lot of that any more.

A lot of these angles are really about trying to mimic broadcast sports angles in order to anchor the scene to sort of normalize it before it becomes abstracted.

A lot of the high-level sports are really in your mind.

When you're a kid growing up and you think you're gay you know that you're different you're often teased and it can really destroy your self-esteem. But sports can be great for building self-esteem.

I'm not really interested in sports psychology. It makes me feel like a crazy person.

My dad is the reason I actually started watching wrestling. My dad was never big into sports we were all big into sports as kids and he'd go to our Little League games or whatever and not really know what was going on because he didn't know about sports but he knew about wrestling.

I was a huge theater geek growing up and that was not the easiest thing in the world especially growing up in Chicago where sports are really the norm. I was always off to the theater at night from 7 years old on. Friends there in the Midwest who could talk to you about the idiosyncrasies of 'Pippin' were few and far between.

I just think that sports movies have such a built-in visceral rooting interest an epic win or lose redemptive quality. When they get it right it can make for a really rousing movie experience.

The 'Sports Illustrated' cover was the last thing I shot. That week I told my agent 'You know what I really... I don't want to be a model anymore. I really want to do movies.' And I think he wanted to wring my neck at the moment.

I was always very independent and looked out for myself. I think that ability really helped me in later years both in sports and in theatre.

When you have a background in combat sports people think you're this martial arts expert but really I'm just a guy who is able to do certain things without making a mess of himself.

I think we have our sports within our own culture that are huge with baseball football basketball and hockey. Those are the sports in America that we grow up with and soccer isn't really there yet.

We've finally told the world that this is sports entertainment and I think one of the best forms of entertainment is anything that's fun or funny something that you really enjoy watching or listening to.

We really love all sports but we don't think in the long term. The reason we did Kingpin was because there was a script we really liked and we saw the possibilities.

The difference between the more traditional sports clubs and Congress is that Congress doesn't really compete against another team.

I'm not that clued up on the American sports yet really.
