My knee is as strong as it was before if not stronger and it's a matter of getting my leg strong. I lost six years of strength in about six month's time so it's going to take another year or two to get that leg back up to full strength but I'm good to go so far.

The fact that we're going through a crisis is an opportunity for Europe to be more coordinated and more integrated. We're actually talking about a European Monetary Fund or euro bonds about guarantees for countries about economic governance in the European Union. That shows the strength of Europe.

Now I am about to be nailed as the man who disliked 'Howl's Moving Castle.' Lord give me strength! Also IT please disconnect the e-mail thing.

I get curious about new things. My real strength is going into a field that has not been investigated before and finding new approaches to it.

Girl power is about loving yourself and having confidence and strength from within so even if you're not wearing a sexy outfit you feel sexy.

I feel like it's always about embracing what it is that you think is wrong with you. It's often times your greatest 'flaw' which actually forays into what is also your greatest strength.

There's so much with my character in 'Dredd' that I identify with. She's my favorite character I think I've ever played. She's the most dynamic and fascinating woman that I could even imagine playing so I love her. What I love about her is that her sensitivity is her greatest strength.

It's all too easy when talking about female gymnasts to fall into the trap of infantilizing them spending more time worrying more about female vulnerability than we do celebrating female strength.

What is being talked about now is the probability of the Sharon government launching an attack against Lebanon to eliminate the resistance of Hezbollah by using the American war against Iraq. But of course in this case we will certainly fight with all our strength.

They tell me that it will be hard to find a man strong enough to love my own strength and independence and not worry about being Mr. Diana Ross but I disagree. I know absolutely that that man is somewhere out there.

I stopped thinking too much about what could happen and relied on my physical and mental strength to play the right shots at the right time.

I'm not just a doormat. I'm not just being stepped on all over the place. If you look at the bulk of my material it's about trying to find some strength through that.

Stand up to your obstacles and do something about them. You will find that they haven't half the strength you think they have.

Anyone could be in the orchestra or sports team or arts club at my school. It was precisely the kind of inclusivity that now meets with a sort of scorn and derision as a prizes-for-all culture that generates only mediocrity. There's something so insulting about the idea that including lots of people means mediocrity.

Sports is like rock 'n' roll. Both are dominant cultural forces both speak an international language and both are all about emotions.

I don't care what they say about me when I'm through with sports. I don't want to be known as anything else in life but a great father.

Absolutely the worst thing about this job is the travel and being away from family. I have a wife and three wonderful children the kids are all active in sports and it's very difficult to up and leave and miss them growing up.

Sports is all about money.

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.

I've always loved sports and hockey is a sport I play as much as I can. I love it. In a weird way it's like church and therapy and exercise all rolled up into one. I mean when I play hockey I don't think about anything.

Sports betting is all about money management so the most money won on one event is not the most important thing.

The thing about sports movies is they can't help but feel epic - putting music to images etc.

Actually I always dreamed about getting a gold medal in the 100-meter freestyle in Olympic swimming. I always thought that would be the epic award in sports to get.

I don't have the insight with the Longhorns that I do with the two teams that I own but as a fan and reading the sports pages I'm bullish about the Longhorns.
