"You have to put in the hours because there’s always something which you can improve."

You have to be patient; great things take time to build.

Success is measured not just in profits, but in positive impact.

"The past is never dead. It's not even past."

The most important thing is you must put everybody on notice that you’re here and you are for real. I’m not a player that is just going to come and go. I’m not a player that is going to make an All-Star team one time, two times. I’m here to be an all-time great. Once I made that commitment and said, ‘I want to be one of the greatest ever’, then the game became everything for me.

Science is a journey, not a destination.
