The Pentagon isn't a place that champions individuality and innovation.
I have always watched the Race of Champions on TV every year and dreamed about participating one day. It's fantastic to be invited; I'm so happy. To represent Team Germany together with Michael Schumacher is a great honor.
There's been a lot of champions before me, and I'm sure there will be ahead of me.
For sportsmen or women who want to be champions, the mind can be as important, if not more important, than any other part of the body.
You still remember the bad rounds here, but they don't stay with you as long. The Champions Tour is great, it's competitive and it's a wonderful show, but it's not the real big league. The real big league is the PGA Tour, and we all know that.
We've gotta give Richard Williams a lot of credit - to give us two number one champions is a phenomenal feat.
England really is the birthplace, the heart and soul of football. If Barcelona had Liverpool's fans, or Arsenal's, or United's, we'd have won 20 Champions Leagues, hahaha!
The likes of Sugar Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran, Tommy Hearns were true champions. There were some incredible fights between us, and I was happy to give them all an opportunity to fight me.
Sometimes you feel the emotion. You think this might be my last pre-season or my last Champions League match. But, overall, those thoughts aren't important right now. But the time will soon come.
I am very proud that Accenture is among corporate champions to be honored by the Women's Forum of New York for our mutual commitment to making a difference.
Roger Ailes champions women, whether it's Paula Zahn, who worked for Fox, Greta Van Susteren - we've always had a woman in primetime - Megyn Kelly, myself; I had a primetime show.
What America demands in her black champions is a brilliant, powerful body and a dull, bestial mind.
Chelsea belongs in the Champions League, and we must stay there.
We know that the French are very different from the Americans in their satisfaction with life. They're much less satisfied. Americans are pretty high up there, while the French are quite low - the world champions in life satisfaction are actually the Danes.
All the champions - you go and ask Mike Tyson or Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano, Lennox Lewis and myself included, and I'm sorry for putting myself in line with all the other great names - but the champion's attitude is it doesn't matter who is in front of me, I am going to conquer this person and win the fight and knock the person out.
I love talking to interesting people - people like O.J. Simpson, Andretti... I love champions. A champion has something special about him.
If I could apologise and go back and change history I would do. But the goal is still a goal, Argentina became world champions and I was the best player in the world.
The Champions League is a big ambition, and all the footballers want to play in it; it is a very important competition.
There have been great champions in every generation.
Computers have proved to be formidable chess players. In fact, they've beaten our top human chess champions.
I know that a good many champions have entertained the thought that the more they discourage youngsters, the longer they would reign. However, this theory never impressed me, and I always made it a point to give youths the benefit of my experience in bicycle racing.
You know when you have a manager that is always successful, is always in the title race and always playing in the Champions League.
Hopefully, we can build a rivalry and we'll be able to do this a lot. Make a legacy, then retire champions.
When at a young age you learn to face your fears, that makes the difference between people being champions and people not being champions.
I've got a tidy chin and a decent punch. And, for people who think they can fight and are champions, I'll make it extremely hard.
I believe the Champions League has all that magic because it gathers all the best European teams, and that gives you the feeling of trying to be the best. That's why the Champions League has this special kind of emotion.
Let me say that if the political arena is your choice as you work to keep our democracy strong and our essential freedoms accessible for all, then that is what you should do, and I salute you. We need champions in all walks of our civic discourse.
I don't think there's anything cliche feminine about Jane Austen. And, anyway, her earliest champions were Sir Walter Scott and the Prince Regent.
Everyone is at their best against the champions.
I'm just happy the city has something to be proud of. The Cavs, the Indians, the Monsters. It just shows that we are the land of champions.
I became so disciplined when I was on tag. I would be at home by eight o'clock, and because I had boxing, I lived the disciplined life. I started reading because I learnt that so many champions educated themselves. Joe Louis, Mike Tyson, Bernard Hopkins. Before, it was 'act now, think later' - but the discipline and reading changed me.
UFC is a moneymaking machine. The most important thing for this organization is a brand and its marketing. They have a couple of good fighters, and there are also some very good champions, but they are trying to keep everyone at the same level. The most important thing for them is the promotion, not the fighters.
I had a lot of pressure in my career: when you play at World Cup or Champions League final, there is pressure on your shoulders.
At Atletico, I've improved at the highest level, and in the Champions League, I've turned a corner.
I've seen teams spend £150 million and get nowhere near the Champions League. It has taken Manchester City a billion to get there. There are no guarantees.
To arrive and try to fight for the Champions League, to try to fight to be the best in the world, you need time.
