I'm not driven to get back into politics. It's not on my top five things to do before I die, but saying that, I may be in politics in the next year or the next ten years. I've been on the front line for 12 years, four in state government, eight on the national level.
I don't want to sacrifice and be a backup to be a Charger. That's not something I want to do or I'm going to do.
Other people may not have had high expectations for me... but I had high expectations for myself.
I've never been interested in a career in modelling, I was interested in my independence. When I was in school, modelling was what I needed to reach independence without having to leave.
I don't look in the mirror and see a president of the United States. I don't have that ambition.
Here's the thing - I mean, I don't act for statues. I really don't. The great thing about winning an award is that it creates opportunities.
Whatever you do in life, don't give up on your own dreams.
I only want to put out the best for myself and my subscribers.
One thing with me, and every goal I've had - in the sport of swimming, my mother didn't know my goals. The only person that knew my goals were my coaches.
I loved the logistical reality of a guy who wants to take over the world, yet who has a family too.
I'm competitive with myself, but not with other people. I set goals for myself. I don't really care about winning or losing as long as I do my best.
My dreams have come true. I mean, everything I wanted to happen as a kid has already happened.
When I was in my teens, I was very, very keen on being the author of a book. What the book was was secondary. I wanted it to be in hardback. I didn't care how thick or thin it was, and I didn't actually care what it was about.
It'd be better if I was 6-2, 220, but I'll work with what I've got.
To not pursue the thing one wants would be a waste of one's life.
I don't think I'm a home run hitter. Most of my home runs are line drives. If I hit it, thanks God. But it's not the kind of thing that I think about. I just go out there and try to have a better season than I had before. Home runs are not in my mind.
Think very carefully about what you want in life. Reckon with the risks.
Like anything, you just need to stay true to who you are and hope that social constructs don't get in the way of accomplishing your goals.
I fear that the day I die, I am going to die without accomplishing what I have in my mind. Life is too short, and a lot of things can happen, and I am really keen to see it with my own eyes - and that is why I am in a hurry.
I'm a guy who expects a lot from himself.
Your dream was given to you. If someone else can't see it for you, that's fine, it was given to you and not them. It's your dream. Hold it. Nourish it. Cultivate it!
I don't want to sacrifice my life, as I feel that I'm still very selfish and still want to pursue my dreams.
I haven't taken any new projects in the past years - I told myself, if I cannot live long enough to finish it, I don't want it.
I wanted to continue to be active on those things that I cared about when I was president where I could still have an impact.
I'm not concerned with appeasing people with a dream match. What I care about is Neville and my championship. That's all I care about.
