Jesus was not conquered by death. By His death, He conquered death.
I felt I was good in basketball but I wasn't a blue-chip prospect.
Sometimes it's more fun to compete with your friends, because you can talk a little trash with them.
If they watch me play, people will say I'm not into it or whatever. That's okay. I kind of like it. People don't know how much work I'm putting into it. They don't need to know.
I want to be on that team that wins the world championship here in Chicago and sees the city go crazy.

It's not like I'm an introvert. You get to know me, I can have a conversation with you. But in front of the media, I'm probably more of a quiet guy.
History is valuable, to begin with, because it is true; and this, though not the whole of its value, is the foundation and condition of all the rest.

The thing about running is, if I run in the morning before work, I feel like I'm ahead of the day. Whatever work I've done in terms of preparation or research or thinking about the scene or the character, it all kind of crystallizes in that moment in the morning. And sometimes I have the best ideas then.
