I think if I were a college professor, no one would say I was uncomfortable about being shy because that might be expected. But I think because of people's stereotypes, they think of a football player as someone who is very outgoing and I'm not. ↗

I'm closer to being happy. I'm doing things that make me happy. In football I loved to practice and I loved to play, but I hated to be in meetings, hated to talk to the media, hated to have cameras in my face, hated to sign autographs. I hated to do all those things. ↗

I've let a lot of things go, and obviously football is one of them. I think the hardest thing to let go is your self-image. That's what I'm working on now. ↗

If you identify yourself as a great football player, anytime anyone challenges that, you're going to have some kind of problem. ↗

The people that I see on the street, they treat me more as a human being and not just an icon or a football player. ↗

Well, I don't think I've necessarily ever been a passionate football player or a passionate person. ↗

There were a couple of years when I wanted to be a football player, but I really always wanted to be a singer. ↗

I was meant to date the captain of the football team, I was going to be on a romantic excursion every Saturday night, I was destined to be collecting corsages from every boy in town before prom, accepting such floral offerings like competing sacrifices to a Delphic goddess. ↗

I started beach football in Monte Carlo when I retired from football in 1997. I liked the game very much. ↗

In football you have an adversary; in cinema that adversary is yourself. ↗
