"Always follow your heart and have faith in yourself and believe in the Lord and He will believe in you."
"I knew he would never play for Wales ... he's tone deaf."
"If you want success, you have to work hard at it and realize that it takes time; it doesn't come to you overnight."
"The only time I really get afraid is when something is affecting my family. But even then, I start to think about the Bible and the passage that says "you should fear no one, fear no man, but only God," and I feel better."
"As a man and as a sports figure, you have to set limits and set boundaries on what can and cannot happen. Once you do that, your family will start to respect you. 'OK, I get it, he's all about football and handling his business,' and that's what I've done. In the past, when I was a young man - a younger man - it was hard for me to say no. Since I'm older, wiser, I know how to handle people, know how to say no, know when something is right and something wrong. I use proper judgment."
