I've messed myself up more playing music than when I played football.
We, of our time, have played our part in the perseverance, and we have pledged ourselves to the dead generations who have preserved intact for us this glorious heritage, that we, too, will strive to be faithful to the end, and pass on this tradition unblemished.
I think the first role I ever played was Mr. Bumble in a production of 'Oliver.'
I was the classic killer. I always played an angry man. I think it was because I used to really be like that - I was hostile. And because I had a good sense of theatrical truth, I used my anger and rebelliousness and just went with it. Anger was just a part of me.
In 'Over the Hedge,' I played a bear, and I spent all this time listening to the sounds they make when they fight and mate, when they're angry or happy.
There were a lot of times where there was a great deal of fodder recorded and played, because there was a market for it - just as there is today. And there were more bad bands than there were good bands - I think that should always be remembered.
The Knicks left me open a lot of times the last time we played them, and I was just making sure I took the shots that were there.
My mother adores singing and plays piano. My uncle was a phenomenal pianist. My brother John is a double bassist. I used to play the piano, badly, and cello. My brother Peter played violin.

Every place where I played or managed is special to me because of the memories and the friendships that each afforded me.
When I was a kid growing up, I liked the sympathetic characters played by Alan Arkin, Jack Lemmon, and James Stewart. They were my heroes. No matter what happened to them, they survived with their dignity intact.
I didn't play soccer; I played that other football in grade school through college.
I played drums on Keith Carradine's first record.
It seems like I've been writing since birth! I started writing poems before I got to school. I wrote the class musical in first grade - both words and music. It was about a bunch of vegetables who got together in a salad. I played the chief carrot!
My dad was a really big baseball guy who helped coach me and thought the game should be played the right way.
The first time I played was in Buenos Aires - was in 1983. The dictatorship was in position.
It's definitely hard to say good-bye to a character that you've played for a long time.
I played in school jazz bands and tried to start rock bands, but nobody was interested.
Man, I'm in the World Golf Hall of Fame. Don't forget that, now. I'm in the World Golf Hall of Fame with all the players. That little old golf I played was all right, wasn't it?
To me, it didn't matter where I played, I just wanted to play well.
Golf is played between the ears and if you are not 100 percent focused on what you are trying to do, then people will go past you no matter who you are.
Clinton has played a major role in giving companies like Cipla credibility, for which I will always be grateful.
When I say I played with the greatest, let's not forget I also played for the greatest coach of all time.
Baseball is more than a game. It's like life played out on a field.
I played a lot of leaders, autocratic sorts; perhaps it was my Canadian accent.
All the bands I've played with have had dynamic front men.
Mainly I was able to perform with music - I played the French horn, I would sing, and I was a drummer in the pipe band. So I think it was a way to show off.
People don't realize that they're being played by the Democratic Party and the Republican Party, but more so by the Democratic Party because the Democratic Party does not want another party in there.
The World Series is played in my doubtless too-nostalgic imagination in some kind of autumn afternoon light, and seeing it exclusively in the bitter chill of midnight breaks the spell of even the best of games.

There is a vast difference between games and play. Play is played for fun, but games are deadly serious and you do not play them to enjoy yourself.
Before it was revealed that my character on 'Lost' had a troubled history, a fan came up to me and said, 'Wow, you're a really nice guy.' To me, that was a compliment, having played a very villainous guy.
If Tiger Woods had played football, he would have been a quarterback.
St. Louis has a super-rich history of soccer, so I was very fortunate growing up to have coaches that played.
I never really trained to be a musician, but I've been playing guitar since I was around, like, 13 years old. For me, the guitar has always been the instrument that I've played. I play a little piano. I taught myself everything by ear. I don't read music at all, which has not really been a hindrance.
I was in the hockey team in school, played football. One of the challenges for me was to make the team feel better. It helped me evolve, so batting at different positions was never a problem.
