I’ve had some experience in track and field in school, but I did have to train to be able to play Jesse Owens – to be a runner, to be an Olympian.
I thank Manchester City for giving me the opportunity to train these amazing players.
I train as hard as I can every time I train and I do extra training every day and I’ve done that since I was a young boy.
I wake up every morning bolt upright, whether it’s a commercial, not that that’s a good thing or a bad thing, because I shoot commercials in between movies. But whether it’s a commercial or a movie where I’m shooting a major train wreck, the thing that worries me most is when I’m doing a performance thing.
From the time I was 9 years old, I loved magic. I was an only child, and I think that had a big impact on me. I always had grown-up friends even though I was a little kid. I would take the train from Lido Beach into Manhattan, and I’d hang out in magic shops.
Do you know who takes weekday shuttle flights between Washington and New York? People who think they are too important for the train, let alone the bus.
When I go train hopping and I look up into the sky, there are always so many more stars than I remember there were.
We train very hard under windy conditions. I’ve actually walked a wire in my backyard with 90-mile-an-hour winds.
People’s lives are in the care of the railways when they get on a train. The railways should remember that.
Now I know a lot about my body, like how important it is to eat well, as it makes you stronger in the end and helps prevent injuries. Or when you train, do you just start to shoot, or do you have a good warm-up first?
I love dancing just because I’ve done it my whole life and it’s definitely what I want to do. I feel like, I want to train with acting and do movies. Those two are my main priorities. I definitely want to be able to sing and model, too. I definitely love those, too.
Learning to live for others isn’t something that just comes naturally to anybody. You have to train yourself to do it.
I don’t train for football; I train more for a lifestyle.
During such a competition players are there for a long time as well as all the people around them. They need to train, to eat, to go out. There ought to be something in it for everyone. On that particular point, my experience has been a bonus.
The beginning of reform is not so much to equalize property as to train the noble sort of natures not to desire more, and to prevent the lower from getting more.
If we can come up with innovations and train young people to take on new jobs, and if we can switch to clean energy, I think we have the capacity to build this world not dependent on fossil-fuel. I think it will happen, and it won’t destroy economy.
We always train with heavier sparring partners to make it harder so the fight will be easier.
In film, you get to take your time and make it right. In TV, it’s all about the schedule. The train is moving and you sometimes just don’t have time to make things right, which is painful ’cause you know it could be done better and you just have no choice.
Cats are impossible to work with. They’re just very difficult because you can’t really train them. They’re not really interested in whatever you want them to do. Dogs want to please you; cats only want to please themselves.
‘Peace Train’ is a song I wrote, the message of which continues to breeze thunderously through the hearts of millions. There is a powerful need for people to feel that gust of hope rise up again.
Whether it be the Foreign Enlistment Act 1870 or the Terrorism Act 2000, there is no shortage of offences with which to prosecute those who go abroad to fight or train and who may threaten us on their return.

I listen to everything while I train. From old school reggae, to classical stuff like Bach, to hip-hop, to rock and roll.
I’ve been training super hard at the Lopez Taekwondo Academy in Houston, which belongs to my brother Jean. For me, I think confidence is the biggest thing; it’s all mental. I train with the best of the best, including my brother Steven, a five-time world champion who won Olympic gold medals.
Exercise is key, of course, and people wrongly think you have to spend hours a day in the gym. Actually, you don’t. All you need is simple equipment, and you can train in your living room.
I think all of my writing life led up to the writing of ‘The Train Driver’ because it deals with my own inherited blindness and guilt and all of what being a white South African in South Africa during those apartheid years meant.
I train and I go home, and when I’m home, I think about training. That’s my life every day, and that’s it.
If you do a practice and train your attention to hover in the present, then you will build the internal capacity to do that as needed – at will and voluntarily.
For if you train hard and responsibly your confidence surges to a maximum.

I do actually use a boxing trainer when I train for stand-up.
I am building a fire, and everyday I train, I add more fuel. At just the right moment, I light the match.
I never travel without my diary. One should always have something sensational to read in the train.
It is one thing to open job opportunities. It is another to train people to fill them, or to persuade American enterprise to seek Negro as well as white applicants.
The harder I train every day on the track and in the gym, the more trust I gain in myself.
I was a psych major in college and I actually owned two white lab rats. I had to train them and I took them home so that’s just kind of missing for me.
My trainer, George Francis, used to train a lot of African boxers. They’re hungry guys, man. They’ve got no trainers, got nothing. They’re so hungry to do boxing, to make some money.
If you don’t have work for a border collie or time to train it properly, your bright young border collie will invent his own work, and chances are you won’t like it.
But I believe the older I get, I’m wiser and I train smarter.
I’m as much of a human being as the rest of the world. But if I don’t train, I don’t win. If I don’t focus, I don’t win. So I don’t have a choice: I just have to run.
They didn’t train me to be in the ring for five and a half hours punching air. So, it was hard, I had to get some body contact in there somewhere, it was mostly body shots and stuff. I had no clue, really.
I do love writing. It doesn’t come to me as readily as I think acting does. I think acting is in my instincts. Writing is a craft that I work very hard at. And I have to train and continue to develop.
‘Soul Train’ was developed as a radio show on television. It was the radio show that I always wanted and never had.
A lot of people think Japanese food is difficult, a lot of work. But you don’t have to buy the knife I have. You don’t have to train as long as I have. You can do my cooking in your kitchen.
I have almost 100 Muay Thai fights, so I used to train and fight with really tough kickers.
I love Pixar films; I think they’re the greatest filmmakers in the world. I love Disney films. ‘Tangled,’ was great. I loved ‘How to Train Your Dragon,’ the Dreamworks film. But it’s not for me. I don’t want to make a film for families; I want to make adult films.
In the army, we do two things every day. We train our soldiers, and then we grow them into leaders, because frankly, we don’t hire out. We grow our own leaders.
You don’t want to be the boy leaving Chelsea, you want to train like every session is your last session because you know you always have to prove something to people.
I am like a freight train. Working on the details, twisting them and playing with them over the years, but always staying on the same track.
Cell phones, alas, have pretty much ruined train travel, which I used to love. I could read or even sketch notes for what I was working on.
We are trying to educate players to use their spare time to train for a life after football, which comes to everybody. You can lead a lot of horses to water, but you can’t make them all drink.
I do what I can, but I’ll always give it a shot. You’re not going to see me playing a Welsh character any time soon, not because I wouldn’t love to. I went up to Wales once and read for a film with Rhys Ifans, and haven’t been asked back since. We did have a nice time on the train on the way back.
Well, I’ve always been interested in approaching a big city in a train, and I can’t exactly describe the sensations, but they’re entirely human and perhaps have nothing to do with aesthetics.
I’ve had enough boyfriends and enough issues. I’d seen enough train wrecks.
I readily admit it is easy to make of horses what we will. Silent, in some ways reserved, they allow us to train them, and to project our ideas upon them; to ride and drive them, and to make them symbolic, perhaps to a greater degree than any other species.
