The biggest lesson from Africa was that life's joys come mostly from relationships and friendships, not from material things. I saw time and again how much fun Africans had with their families and friends and on the sports fields they laughed all the time. Andrew Shue on sports
I'm a big sports fan. Football. Cricket. Danny Boyle on sports
I never really participated in specific sports or anything, but once I hit 40, I started to get a little bit more active and began swimming more. Shigeru Miyamoto on sports
Team sports aren't my thing. I find it easier to pick something up if I can do it at my own speed. And you don't need a partner to go running, you don't need a particular place, like in tennis, just a pair of trainers. Haruki Murakami on sports
I like both athletic girls and girly girls. It depends on their personality. I like girls who can go out and play sports with me and throw the football around, but you don't want a girl who's too much tougher than you. I like brainy girls who can respond to what I'm saying. Josh Hutcherson on sports
I enjoy sports. I get a real joy from playing sports but I don't look for those movies. Oliver Stone wanted to know if I would do Any Given Sunday and it just didn't appeal to me. Kevin Costner on sports
Now, I know you expected me to say that, well, I just kick back in the rocking chair, fished a little bit, listened to Willie Nelson tapes and watched old baseball games on the Classic Sports network. And, tell you the truth, I have done that for maybe about five total minutes. Dan Rather on sports
I wanted to use sports for social change. Billie Jean King on sports
In the seventies we had to make it acceptable for people to accept girls and women as athletes. We had to make it okay for them to be active. Those were much scarier times for females in sports. Billie Jean King on sports
There's not a long track record of people leaving professional sports to become a software developer. Curt Schilling on sports
I used to play a lot of racket sports, tennis and squash. Jason Statham on sports
Sports without music, it's nothing but a game. Music adds the emotion. Ice Cube on sports
Music has done a lot to enhance the emotions of sports. It's played in arenas. Whenever there is footage cut together they're always using music. And it goes together, you know. Ice Cube on sports
As the National Football League and other pro sports increasingly reckon with the early dementia, mental health issues, suicides and even criminal behavior of former players, the risk of what's known as chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), is becoming clear. Jeffrey Kluger on sports
The families of many athletes - incensed at the sports leagues and hoping to make games safer overall - are increasingly making the brains of players who die prematurely and suspiciously available for study. Some athletes are even making the bequest themselves. Jeffrey Kluger on sports
I think I was a good student, because I jumped over a school. My main interest was basically history and literature. Sports were basically basketball and swimming at a pool. I was so happy. Shimon Peres on sports
Just like I find men who talk sports who don't really know sports annoying, I think men might find women who don't really have a true passion and knowledge of sports maybe not so attractive. Gabrielle Union on sports
I've always had an interest in sports across the board. Gabrielle Union on sports
I played sports year around: basketball, soccer, softball and I ran track year around, from the time I was, like, six, seven. Gabrielle Union on sports
I'm nothing more than a sports slave. Dennis Rodman on sports
