Ambition has but one reward for all: A little power, a little transient fame; A grave to rest in, and a fading name! ↗

Don't walk through life just playing football. Don't walk through life just being an athlete. Athletics will fade. Character and integrity and really making an impact on someone's life, that's the ultimate vision, that's the ultimate goal - bottom line. ↗

I don't diet, I don't do fads, I've just decided to not eat carbs. So no more bread and pasta for the month. I can't live without chocolate, though. I've always got a bar in my handbag. It has to be 72%. Any less and it's too sweet, any more and it's inedible. Like I said, I'm very particular. ↗

All that's bright must fade, The brightest still the fleetest; All that's sweet was made But to be lost when sweetest. ↗
