2012 was the year I saw Twitter as a negative. More people need to realise that not everything they read is true and that Internet trolls are a real problem.
I had no interest in steroids. I didn't need them, and I didn't want them. I never wanted them. From the get-go, I've frequently mouthed off about their negative impact on the game.

Positive thinking will let you do everything better than negative thinking will.
The media loves negative spin.
Oscar is the exact opposite of how I think you should behave. I just think of it as a negative view of the positive mind I have.

There was a time I was no longer going to be black. I was going to be an 'intellectual.'

My attitude to peace is rather based on the Burmese definition of peace - it really means removing all the negative factors that destroy peace in this world.
