I like playing sport. I'm a bit of a design enthusiast, and like spending time with my girlfriend and mates.
Sports is a metaphor for overcoming obstacles and achieving against great odds. Athletes, in times of difficulty, can be important role models.
The great thing about playing team sport is you win and lose together, and the pain is never as bad when you share it.
The great thing about sports is you constantly have to prove yourself. You constantly have to go out there and do it, day in and day out.
I had a great interest in sports. I had three older brothers who were great athletes. I was not.
You can't get real happy or real depressed when you play baseball. Baseball is a great sport in that it offers a player a lot of opportunities for atonement.
Sport is and should remain a great school of life that supports young people in their personal development. It teaches respect for others and also for oneself.
No other game combines the wonder of nature with the discipline of sport in such carefully planned ways. A great golf course both frees and challenges a golfer's mind.
All their sport in the park is but a shadow to that pleasure that I find in Plato; alas good folk, they never felt what true pleasure meant.
Everybody recognises that giving young people competitive outlet through sport is a very good thing.
I told myself after 2008 that I was done for good. But they say you can't keep a gymnast away from her sport.
I had this inferiority complex as a child, as I was not good at speaking. I was also not good in studies or sports and would often flunk in four-five subjects.
Our philosophy precedes from the belief that sport is an inalienable part of the educational process and a factor for promoting peace, friendship, cooperation and understanding among peoples.
I love sport as long as it's kept as an entertainment - not a meaning of life.
It is just a crazy life as a sportsman. My daughter, Sam, wants to go into tennis, and I tell her, 'No, you don't want to go into professional sport.'
Since childhood, sports has been one of the most important influences in my life.
I actually love pressure. I loved playing sport at school in front of a crowd; I love being on stage in front of a big audience. I buzz off that.
I played basketball in high school, and I love watching sports - I'll watch everything except maybe hockey.
I definitely like to stay active. I'm a huge fan of the NBA and the sport of basketball. I love to play pick-up games in Brooklyn where I live.
I'd had 35 professional fights and mentally I was tired of it. I'd sort ot fallen out of love with the sport.
I don't see many people as heroes and, though I love sport, I believe athletes rarely deserve that praise.
