football baby people
Football is easy; I’ve done this since I was a baby. To me, that’s not success. Success to me is being a world changer…I say football is my platform, not my purpose. How can I use my platform to fulfill my purpose? I want people to say that he fulfilled his purpose.
pain one-thing
It’s one thing to see yourself going across the ticker…But to take someone else down, that’s another. I really can’t even explain that pain.
singing baptists old-fashioned
This is going to be an old fashioned Baptist camp meeting with old fashioned singing, preaching and testifying.
reactions
I wouldn’t change any of my reactions
years guy quarterback
The guys that are out there now like Calvin Johnson and Larry Fitzgerald they're making $16 million, $15 million a year, and I'm not looking for anything like that. A lot of that money goes to the quarterback position and rightfully so.
years next-year contracts
But if it comes down to next year, I'll be picketing outside of Halas Hall for a new deal, a new contract, because I'm not going anyplace.
silly nfl call-me
I call him Alshon. He calls me Demaryius Thomas.

There are a lot of bands and performers whose careers are permanently derailed by spectacularly bad management.
dirty opportunity garden
If you're a gardener, or creating a garden you're clearly looking to the future. You have a sense of your own future and a sense of yourself in that space. People coming here feel that hope, that renewal, and that sense of regeneration. They get their hands dirty and connect back to the ground, which is what we feel strongly about - giving everybody the opportunity to get connected to the earth.
photography travel encounters
The photograph reverses the purpose of travel, which until now had been to encounter the strange and unfamiliar.
hard means saying
It's a hard job. It means giving up some things, but on the other hand they keep saying you can have it all. You can't really have it all so easy. You can do a little of this and little of that.
motivational positive objectivity
When a thing is done, it's done. Don't look back. Look forward to your next objective.
following-instructions serious given
Passive inactivity, because you have not been given specific instructions to do this or to do that, is a serious deficiency.
responsibility people challenges
Climate change is a very unusual ethical challenge because it's so completely measurable...one of the reasons people should take action is because they have a responsibility for their emissions...therefore what somebody else does is really irrelevant
