Loyalty and friendship trumps politics for me.

Anyone who starts piercing the bubble of happiness, get 'em out of your life.

A lot of people have their big dreams and get knocked down and don't have things go their way. And you never give up hope, and you really just hold on to it. Hard work and perserverance. You just keep getting up and getting up, and then you get that breakthrough.

One of my beliefs about leadership is it's not how many followers you have, but how many people you have with different opinions that you can bring together and try to be a good listener.

Leadership is about stepping up when it's the appropriate time and then making sure everyone knows that we're all on the same page.

Leadership is about having the courage to go against the advice of the so-called experts and doing what your instinct tells you is right.

The game of football requires attention constantly. If you miss one play, you can miss a lot of action - unlike some other sports.

Sometimes, life is unfair, and you have to suck it up and move on and not use it as an excuse.
