In golf, a player can step and mar the line of his adversary's putt. A player can also hit his adversary or his caddie intentionally with his ball and claim the hole - but it isn't usually done.
Within these premises, the only thing one can be is an impeccable mediator. One is not the player in this cosmic match of chess, one is simply a pawn on the chessboard. What decides everything is a conscious impersonal energy that sorcerers call intent or the Spirit.
The end goal is to become FIFA Women's Player of the Year.
Seeing the same coverages, the same personnel, and for us to change the whole scenery, and bring somebody else in that’s necessarily competitive, a professional competitiveness, where guys are respecting each other’s careers, but yet are getting better. For us to come out here and a get a win, I think it helped us with those practices.
I listened to classical guitar and Spanish guitar, as well as jazz guitar players, rock and roll and blues. All of it. I did the same thing with my voice.
In cinema, the leading player is the director.
I've had many a player tell me all through high school and right up until signing day that they were coming to Alabama, then they signed with somebody else.
For me the most important thing has always been tennis, and that's what I want to get across the image I want to portray is a hard-working tennis player.
The Celtic fans are very special and the club and players can be very proud of them. They are the best I have ever heard.
Fighting is necessary in hockey. But if you fight, you have to choose your partner carefully. If you're an experienced player and you want to fight, you can't choose a player who has never fought in his life.
Friends are helpful not only because they will listen to us, but because they will laugh at us; Through them we learn a little objectivity, a little modesty, a little courtesy; We learn the rules of life and become better players of the game
As a coach, I want players to challenge me, to question me and ask why we're doing a certain thing, so they feel that they're taking ownership.
In my opinion, the style of a player should not be formed under the influence of any single great master.
The most important part of a player's body is above his shoulders.
I don't treat the band like I'm above them or that they're a hired hand for me. We've never worked that way. So I'm a team player. I would be very uncomfortable having to do this alone.
The best thing you can say about any coach is his players play hard for him.
You have to demand things and believe you're worth more. And once you do demand them, you're usually going to get them. The players who first came in were very humble because we came from obscurity. Today's players, on the other hand, have a sense of entitlement.
Age is as much an asset for character players as it is for good wine. Human experiences, both good and bad, leave their marks on one's face and bearing. A few lines on the face and a few gray hairs coupled with the idiosyncrasies an actor adopts throughout life help out round out the actor's personality. So far as I'm concerned, the older a character actor gets, the firmer his position is.
I'm just thrilled for so many people. Our players, mostly, but the people in our organization - Rick Welts, Joe Lacob and Peter Guber and the whole group. It's just a phenomenal group of people. I think as a coach you just appreciate kind of the big picture a little bit more.
I don't know why the players make such a big fuss about sitting in the first class section of the plane. Does that mean they'll get there faster?
A player should never be selfish and should always contribute to team's victory.
As players, you just play for the club. I love Man United, I'm going to play for Man United, and that's what my focus is on.
If you love Senegal so much, why don't you play for them?
Every player had a roommate for out-of-town games, so I had to slip into the bathroom early each morning and secretly take my insulin injection. I feared that if the Cubs found out and I slumped badly, they would attribute it to the diabetes and send me back to the minors - or worse, release me.
All this world is but a play... be thou the joyful player.
