I've followed freedom for a long time and I finally feel I've got more of it. People talk about the money that I've given up and the money that I've lost. But the knowledge and the wisdom that I've gotten from this experience is priceless.

If you replace the word God in the Bible with the word Truth, it reads exactly right.

I don't think people change. I think they definitely mature. But I think the essence of what I am today is the same as when I was five years old. It's just maturity. I've become a healthier, fuller expression of that essence.

I'm closer to being happy. I'm doing things that make me happy. In football I loved to practice and I loved to play, but I hated to be in meetings, hated to talk to the media, hated to have cameras in my face, hated to sign autographs. I hated to do all those things.

I don't think I'll ever be able to stay in one place for more than a year or two. It's not in my nature.

Football is my job, not my life, but it's a job I'm going to give my all for as long as I'm in it.

I don't care what people think about me because I know I am more than all the pain and strife they hold inside.
