I was a fat little kid with a speech impediment. I used to get beat up, not just picked on.

I wish they would see the real person in me. One day, they will know I'm not here for the show. My mind do shine. My heart is so kind. But that they can not see because all they see is the outside of me. Who I am, what I do is only the reaction I get from you.

When I started out as a little kid, I didn't say 'I just want to run football.' I wanted to be a great athlete.

If you dedicate yourself to something, you can achieve it. It's simple, but it's true, and your age is just an excuse.

Eat what you want to eat, but just be willing to pay the price. If you know you want to eat more cake or more cookies, be willing to work out a lil bit more. I think that's the problem people have is you want to eat bad, but yet you don't want to pay the price to work it off.

If you train hard, you'll not only be hard, you'll be hard to beat.

I never dreamed about being an actor, because that was out of reach. Coming from a small town that was big in farming, and also big in clothing factories, you don't dream about being a professional football player or an actor.
