About Tom Brady: Thomas Edward Patrick is an American football quarterback for the New England Patriots of the National Football League (NFL).
A lot of times I find that people who are blessed with the most talent don't ever develop that attitude, and the ones who aren't blessed in that way are the most competitive and have the biggest heart.
When you have two busy kids running around the house, returning e-mails is a task, let alone surfing the web.
I'm not a very creative person, you know? I'm not really an art person. I'm not a great reader or writer or artist or musician.
I've always been privileged to play for Coach Belichick, who I've always said is the best coach in the history of the league.
My job is to play quarterback, and I'm going to do that the best way I know how, because I owe that to my teammates regardless of who is out there on the field with me.
Mentally, the only players who survive in the pros are the ones able to manage all their responsibilities. Everybody struggles in different ways.
I play a complicated position in an intensely team-oriented game.
I'm much more comfortable and confident running out on the field in front of 70,000 people instead of standing in front of a camera trying to say some lines. The people who do that as a profession are very talented because it's certainly not easy.
To me, if you're trying to impress a girl, get a date, they're gonna like that more because you're a confident guy. That's what it comes down to.
Every quarterback can throw a ball; every running back can run; every receiver is fast; but that mental toughness that you talk about translates into competitiveness.
The true competitors, though, are the ones who always play to win.
Every man should know, if you're comfortable and you like it, you should do it. Everyone always worries about what the girls think, what the guys think. If you like it, do it.
Nothing surprises me anymore in the NFL.
I've had just about everything punched. I've had things grabbed that just shouldn't be grapped.
WIth football you can have up to 28 guys you consider starters, and if they can pick up the slack when some aren't playing so well, you don't have to turn those two game losing streaks into six-game losing streaks.
You never get over losses. I've never gotten over one loss I've had in my career. They always stick with me.
My wife and I are very affectionate.
I'm not really concerned with portraying this tough warrior - I mean, that's part of my job and I take that very seriously. But I don't have anything to hide, and I'm not concerned with what people think.
All parents are concerned about their children's well-being. As a parent of three kids, I'm very concerned about their well-being.
I have a memory, and I can just eliminate mistakes when they come up because I've already made them.
