A Quote by Jimmy Connors

Nothing is like being out there and playing and performing and winning - nothing. But to have an interest in the player? The nerves and everything that goes with it? Seeing what he's learned and how he's done it? That's the second best thing to playing. I think.

Playing for England in Spain was really hard but racism is still in the game, which it shouldn't be. I think when you're playing the best thing to do is block it out like you do with everything else.

Shaun Wright-Phillips

There's nothing like seeing the smile on my kids' faces. Laughing together. Playing. It's the best.

Mark Wahlberg

You know, there's nothing like seeing the smile on my kids' faces. Laughing together. Playing. It's the best.

I think the more important thing for a player is to make sure that you're playing and you're playing well and playing consistently. If doesn't matter where you are.

Clint Dempsey

This Guy (Messi) is the Best Player in the World, no doubt about that. I think we're always nervous about calling people who are currently playing, who are young at 23, to say he's the Best Player ever. But we shouldn't be. We should admit what we are seeing in front of our eyes. This is a special talent, who may be is the Best Player ever been seen.

Gary Neville

In my own musical existence I don't feel that being a guitar player is like the best thing on earth to be. I would rather be a balanced musician. Playing in a group, I'm tending to think more about the music and less about the guitar. That's just me getting older. I'm not interested in being a virtuoso guitar player or anything like that.

Jerry Garcia

There's nothing like Opening Day. There's nothing like the start of a new season. I started playing baseball when I was seven years old and quit playing when I was 40, so it's kind of in my blood.

George Brett

There's nothing like getting out there playing a great show with Skynyrd and seeing people love this music.

Johnny Van Zant

Nothing goes through your head when you're playing except who you are playing against and what you can do to affect the game.

Jack Wilshere

I prefer to feel uncomfortable by participating in projects were I am not the specialist. I am always the one who knows nothing. Playing with jazzmen and knowing nothing about jazz. Playing pop music and knowing nothing about how to structure a pop song. And the funny thing, which still surprises me, is that I continue to be invited to play by new people, from different areas, every day.

Gaspar Claus

There's nothing like playing. You can coach and you can be around the game, but there is nothing like playing. It's just so much fun.

Steve Largent

I think being Shaquille O'Neal would be the most amazing thing. There's nothing I would have done differently in his life. Everything he's done I think is pretty spot on, even, like, the bad rap videos, the shoes, the movies, everything.

David Chang

Because [Russel Westbrook] is so rare and impacts the game in so many different ways, you see the usage and the amount of time he's playing and say, 'is this sustainable?' I look at it the other way. Are we playing the right way, are we playing together as a team, and what are his minutes like? This is not a guy that's playing 42 minutes a night. When he goes out there he's going to play to who he is, and I think he also understands that in order for our team to be the best we can be he's got to incorporate and help everybody grow as players.

Russell Westbrook

Rock 'n' roll and playing live is very addictive. But you have to really be careful, because you don't want to do it all the time. It's like when you are young and you think if you are not having sex you're wasting your time. But as you get older you realise everything has its place. It's the same thing with performing.... Performing is a great thing to do but you don't want to have to be doing it every night.

Mick Jagger

How can you not have fun going around the country playing baseball for a living? Being a baseball player is the next best thing to being a rock star.

Jason Giambi

The thing I learned when I was playing was that your best way of winning was to make it difficult for the other team to score in the last three innings.
