Acting is playing - it's actually going out on a playground with the other kids and being in the game, and I need that. Writing satisfies that part of myself that longs to sit in my room and dream.
Pitches are like pages of a book; they're so important. The chess game; how I set you up early, and how I'll do it differently later.
I'm not devastated over a baseball game. If somebody came to me and said, 'Your wife is terminally ill.' Or, if my kids and wife get on a plane and I got a call that said, 'Something happened with the plane,' that's devastating.
Sometimes, the startup game works in your favor just because you got in at the right time and right environment. Other times, you're a little too late entering an already crowded space. But startups with strong fundamentals withstand external conditions and come out ahead in good or bad times.
I predict you're going to see more and more of this shifting of al Qaeda fighters going over to ISIS because they are the game in town.
People often refer to my career before The Crying Game as something which led up to that point. But I was very fulfilled in what I was doing.
Sustainability, ensuring the future of life on Earth, is an infinite game, the endless expression of generosity on behalf of all.

I don't know how the rap game is, because I'm a fan of reality, and the rap game's entertainment.
In business, I believe that if you focus only on the journey, you'll miss the whole point of the enterprise. There has to be a goal, an end game of some kind; otherwise, you're just spinning your wheels. Yes, the journey is important, but the destination is important, too.
The fans of 'Game of Thrones' are dedicated. It's really nice to talk to them, why they love the show and what it means to them. It's a real pleasure.
I am most proud of the development of the characters as personalities that game players could relate to and care about.
Donning a glove for a backyard toss, or watching a ball game, or just reflecting upon our baseball days, we are players again, forever young.
I always say this to people: 'If Shaq can be in the NBA for 19 years and dominate for 19 years using his body, why can't I be in the music industry for 50 years using my brain when my brain is way stronger than anyone's body?' I have to have a successful record company, more hit records. I want to dominate the game.
The first game is always the most difficult, for the nerves you have before you begin to play.
When it comes to the game of life, I figure I've played the whole course.
I'm not better when I force shots. I'm going to take them as they come. They are really sagging in there, trying to take me out of the game. It's my job to find guys. I want to be aggressive and take my shots, but I can't force them.
Photoshop should be a free-to-play game. There's not really a difference between very traditional apps and how they enhance productivity and wandering around a forest and killing bears.
I learned in the computer game business early on that all senses are not equal. The best example is, you're listening to a radio play and you're driving down the road, and suddenly you realize you haven't seen the road in five minutes. It's because your visual cortex has been partying with your imagination, basically.
I got an offer in 1992 to buy a major-league team. I turned down the offer because I don't want my love of the game to involve business.
I'm very thankful to the Yankees and to Major League Baseball for allowing me to play this game.

I know that there's a god because I was able to survive everything that I've been through - all of the tough times - and I'm still at the top of my game.
The public wouldn't like the perfect umpire in every game. It would kill off baseball's greatest alibi - 'We was robbed.'
I just want to show the fans my big smile and play the game that I love.
If you look at the game and everything, it's not quite like looking at an animated film, because that's total character. This, this is really movement, but it's got funny little things if you look for the humor. They're actually getting to the character.
My favorite quarterback is Donovan McNabb. I think he's a complete quarterback. I love the way he can scramble and throw on the run. He can do it all. He can control a game.
I think if you're writing a play, it should be its own end game; you'll never get to do a good one unless you know it's not a blueprint for a film; you're not going to get the action right and the story right.
When I look back at the tapes, your first everything, your first All-Star Game, your first playoff experience, it just seems like it went by really fast.
Regardless of who you are, what sport you chose, or how much success you achieved, playing the game is all about getting you ready for life.
I don't think I'll get the credit I deserve, but I didn't get into this game for credit. I got into this game to be the greatest welterweight ever. If I keep knocking them out one by one, I think that will happen.
Football is an incredible game. Sometimes it's so incredible, it's unbelievable.
