“You want to be in the first round. That’s the dream. That’s what you see on draft night.”

Kids in sports – it makes such an impact in life with the lessons that you learn.

I feel like, even if something goes wrong, I have confidence in myself and my team that we’ll fix it.

Until you get there, you never know what to expect.

East Texas isn’t known for producing quarterbacks. I was never really on the football circuit. I wasn’t the type of guy that put my name out there.

It’s a challenge for all quarterbacks, though: You want to make the big play; you want to throw a touchdown every single play. But at the same time, you have to know that it’s a process.

Throughout my whole football career, I have always known I wasn’t the fastest guy.

Good third-down teams are teams that usually have success in this league. –

It’s not like I mean to throw no-look passes. I think it kind of happens out of instinct. As I do it, I’m like, ‘Dang, I didn’t even mean to do that.

You see Tom Brady, you see Alex Smith, and you see all those guys in the pocket and how quick they are with their footwork and how they get the ball out fast. I have to get like that.

I just try to learn from every mistake that I make so that I never make them again.

The best thing about it is you’re showing kids that no matter where you grow up, what race you are, that you can achieve your dream.

I have a lot of guys around me that help make my job easier.

I just try to be the best Patrick Mahomes I can be.

You have to learn and develop from every experience you see on the field. I might see an unscouted blitz. I might see different coverages than I’m expecting. So I need to process and make those adjustments as I go.

Coming from college, where they tell you exactly what you have to do, and they tell you have to be at this at this time, you kind of get punishment for that. Now you’re in the NFL, and you have to do it on your own.

Never change who you are, and be the best you can be.

Kiss me before my eyes surrender to dreamless nights because how can I dream when I live in one?

Let me follow my dream. Let me follow my queen.

What power would hell have if those imprisoned here would not be able to dream of heaven?

Don’t ever let pride stop you from your dream. When we humble ourselves we can step out to what is seen.

In civilizations without ships, dreams dry up, espionage takes the place of adventure and the police take the place of corsairs.

I’ve always been a dreamer chasing the clouds.

Never in my wildest dreams would I have dreamed you here with me.

Be the girl you see yourself as in your dreams. Now show up as she watches all the life she brings.
