(Page 73)

"My feeling was and always has been, if you love what you do, then you don’t have to work a day in your life. Now that I was in training camp with the two-time world champion 49ers, with an organization as successful as most of those on the Fortune 500 list, I wasn’t working. I was playing."
(Page 52)

(Page 89)

"My thinking was always the team. How can we make the team better?"
(Page 146)

"The real challenge for players, and the ones that go on to become champions, is overcoming their own doubt. The real key to success is having the confidence to play every play at your highest level."
(Page 73)
