Once I started realizing I could lose people at the line of scrimmage, and essentially run a route on air. I figured that that was the way to go. So I just put a lot into that, and obviously I made it a big part of who I am as a football player.
But – but the greatest way to witness is by walking that straight and narrow and also realizing that you’re going to mess up. That’s what grace is for. We’re going to fall, but we’ve got to get back up. And you’ve got to improve. And that’s what I’m all about.
I think being on a film set for such a long time made me a technical actor without realizing it.
I stopped playing online poker due to a combination of the UIGEA legislation and realizing that I could make more money with less effort by betting sports.

I would say that I love pizza so much that sometimes I eat pizza while I’m eating pizza. Like, I’m so content with myself with how it’s going that I’m like, ‘I should do this more,’ not realizing that the mouth is full. I’m just cramming pizza into my mouth.

The hardest part about acting is realizing it doesn’t matter.
‘Urban Renewal’ was sweet because I’ve been – unfairly, I would say – plonked in the middle of the road because of a handful of songs. It came at a good time for me, because you do take a bit of a browbeating and, as you get older, you become better at accepting it and realizing why it happens.
I feel like it’s such an exercise in, like, several things to read a ton of ‘Cosmo’s or ‘Glamour’s or whatever, all at once. Because you start realizing how they’re just talking about nothing for many pages, and they sort of lull you into this hypnotic state.
People are realizing that color has no bearing on what’s known as brotherhood.
When you grow up with a significant amount of trauma, you are realizing it as you get older, and you’re realizing the ways you can recover from that trauma. The things that I have witnessed and that I have been through, it’s going to take a lifetime to undo.
I have never experienced anything like walking out onto the stage of an oversold venue and, before the first note is struck, realizing that there is not going to be enough oxygen for all of us.
Having to wake up at seven and go take the subway every morning, having to get over there with all these commuters and see every possible face of humanity and realizing that you’re just the same as these other people is actually an amazingly positive thing.
Rather than realizing immediate physiological gain, the challenge is more about reducing the mental attrition from the two days to maximize each event.

Someone said adversity builds character, but someone else said adversity reveals character. I’m pleasantly surprised with my resilience. I persevere, and not just blindly. I take the best, get rid of the rest, and move on, realizing that you can make a choice to take the good.
I felt like power meant that you had to be engaged in a certain kind of struggle by force of movement and battle – and that’s very exhausting. Now, power is more about certainty and stillness and realizing that the infrastructures that we gather around and worship are the least powerful things.
The fundamental difficulty that most novelists face when they are trying to adapt their own book into a screenplay is realizing that a screenplay is a completely different way of storytelling, and it has limitations.
I remember when I was in my late teens just getting rid of lots of records, realizing I only ever listened to them when I was reading, or watching TV, or doing something else.
I started realizing how the condition of our hearts affects the way we see. If your heart is full of bitterness, anger, and resentment, you’re going to look at this world as a very evil place.
You have to have this straddling balance of realizing that games are incredibly complex.

You have to understand the medium you’re writing for. People jump into writing musicals without realizing how complicated they are. Knowing one form doesn’t necessarily mean you know the other. You have to be comfortable with it.

Skydiving is fascinating, the best part is cruising in the air and realizing that the dice has been thrown and you’re either going to die or not. It’s a very helpless feeling but it’s so freeing.
People were asleep, but I think they’re waking up now. Trump has given everybody a good kick, and people are waking up and realizing they’ve got to get involved.
You may be basing a portion of your self-worth on your bank account without even realizing it. Try to pinpoint the activities and qualities that, free of charge, fulfill you.
It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

As an older generation, we need to give all our young people love and the possibility of realizing their dreams. For instance, if I get really political, the fact that some people can’t go to college, can’t even think about college, that’s not American; that’s not right.
