I always tell young athletes the same thing, 'Wherever you go, whatever you do, what must your top priority be? Running.'
With regard to what is designed really well, I think people are the best-designed objects in the world. Seriously.
I have a confession: I'm not a man of simplicity. I spent my entire early career making complex stuff. Lots of complex stuff.
I think Ray Guy and John Madden for sure should be in the Hall of Fame and Cliff Branch should be as well.
I'd like to be a more consistent starter. I'd like a smoother transition from crouching to running. I have to learn to relax during a race and how to breathe.
I don't have any down days. If anybody who knows me comes into our locker room, they know I'm happy; they know I'm cheerful.
I did do Broadway for a little less than a year and realized quickly I don't have a passion for it and, more importantly, I don't have a talent in it.
Later, I could take something off my slider and I could make my fastball sink, so I really had four pitches.
When you reach that elite level, 90 percent is mental and 10 percent is physical. You are competing against yourself. Not against the other athlete.
On certain plays and situations I feel like I have the advantage. But sometimes I just have to not think about the size of the guy in front of me.
I never dislike anyone that I am in competition with. I welcome the challenge. Besides, I get along with just about everyone.
There were no competitions on television. The first skating competition I ever remember seeing on television was the 1968 Olympics when Peggy Fleming won.
It's different today than it was then. In those days we were strictly amateurs. If I had wanted to stay in for the '80 Olympics, my parents couldn't have afforded it.
I used to have terrible tantrums. I was temperamental when I was younger. Actually, what I needed was a swift kick in the pants. What a brat!
People think skating would translate very easily to dancing, but it really doesn't. Dancing is a lot of fun and not as dangerous as being on the ice.
Sir Larry could be very strict and a disciplinarian, too. He had many faces; he wore many hats. But, ultimately, he loved the theater and he loved actors.
My husband and I believe that if you treat a child well and nurture his talent and physical ability, in a healthy environment, the child will succeed no matter what.
I have a secret sibling that I never knew existed and who was given up for adoption at birth by my parents, and she was born without legs.
There's always motivation coming into Majors. If you can't get up and get excited to win one of these, then you probably shouldn't be playing golf.
Boy, does that give you street cred for years after, if you tell people you were on 'The Larry Sanders Show!'
In NASCAR, you don't have to be as physically strong as in some other forms of racing. You've just got to be able to endure the heat and endurance of it.
