Now, performing is second nature and I love every second of it. It is a very emotional thing when I can't play a song; maybe I'm hitting on something that I don't want to deal with. All of it is so personal. It is like therapy.
My mom would give me a piece to play, but I wouldn't do any theory because when it came time to do it I would sneak back upstairs and watch TV. So, I had these kind of nonchalant lessons for years, then it just started soaking in.
I'm on record as being understood to be a supporter of a reformed establishment, in which other Christian denominations, and other faiths, play a major part.
When I play poker, I don't like losing the pot.
It was kind of like they were just giving us a toy to play with, to do whatever we wanted with.
But, you know, I just want to play well and have fun playing well.
I just want to get to the level where I can say that that's my level, just try to play well, get up there.
You know, I'm confident before I go out and play a match that I know, you know, I've put in the work and like I feel confident that I am going to go out there and play well.
Life is a moderately good play with a badly written third act.
This was an important part of my life. But it was also sad that we didn't play there, cause we had such alot of fans that were waiting for us and Brazilians are great people. It's now my second home.
I prefer to play and lose rather than win, because I know in advance I'm going to win.
Often there are players who have only football as a way of expressing themselves and never develop other interests. And when they no longer play football, they no longer do anything; they no longer exist, or rather they have the sensation of no longer existing.
I loved the opportunity to play for the Yankees, too.
Well, I wanted to play twenty years in the major leagues. I never made it twenty though. I played nineteen.
So to get to play for the Yankees was really exciting. Really exciting.
