“Played tennis for years. But you can’t improve at tennis after you’re 50. You get to be in your 40s, and suddenly you’re a doubles player.”

I would never complain about my life, even though I really would like to have a mate.

I used to think that one of the great signs of security was the ability to just walk away.

A star on a movie set is like a time bomb. That bomb has got to be defused so people can approach it without fear.

His realistic assessment, acknowledgment of failure, and ownership of the problem were key to developing a plan to improve performance and ultimately win.

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.

We have the power to improve our work lives immeasurably through awareness, compassion, patience & ingenuity.

The self is not something ready-made, but something in continuous formation through choice of action.

We could improve worldwide mental health if we acknowledged that parents can make you crazy.
