Usually I have to leave parties early - just when the action is beginning.

I'm just tired of having to say 'cheese' all the time for the press.

I can't wear the same outfit twice without washing it. And tennis is a grueling occupation.

I think It would be quite fun to play Bobby Riggs.

I can't explain why I play belter when I am down. It's the challenge I suppose.

I play better if the matches are tight.

I know, everybody thinks that all Aussies love beer. I guess most of them do, but not me.

Once in a while I'll drink a rum-and-Coke but that's all, and only once in a while.

I never think I'm going to lose.

Concentration may be my weak point.

My greatest high was to hit a ball well, to try to do it perfectly, to try different things, whether they came off or not.

I can think of matches I played where I played one or two points perfectly, and that gave me a thrill.

The most exciting match I ever played was the 1974 US Open final against Billie Jean King.

It's nice to be remembered.

There are about 100 Aboriginal communities in Australia, and I'm trying to visit as many as possible to learn as much as I can.

People told me I made the game look easy and I didn't always look like I was trying my best, but I always was.

After I make some bad shots, it makes me bear down and concentrate more.

I'm not going to change; I'm going to keep grinding. I'm going to do all I can to win.

Trust your landmark and run through the smoke. It's going to open up eventually.

You definitely have to think of the perception of things before you actually do certain things. It may not seem like it's a big deal to you yourself, but there's a bigger picture.

You can't win every game, so I've just got to get back to work and get better next week.

I'm a guy that can play three downs. You don't have to take me off the field. I value blocking.

I'm just trying to go out each week and get better. I just have to be patient, and it's going to happen.

That's just how I live my life. That's how I was raised: to demand excellence out of myself.

Witten was my guy. I stayed in Wit's hip pocket and did everything I could to learn from him, learn how to be a pro.

With every rep, you're going to get better.

I think I'm a guy who's going to work and work hard from Day 1, and I think I'm a guy who brings a lot of versatility to the position.

You can't really sit around when you're sore. You've got to get up and work all that lactic acid out.

Winning the Super Bowl would be way more special than the rookie rushing record.

In playoff football, you've got to be physical. You've got to run the ball.

The NCAA has its rules. It's our job to abide by them.

I wouldn't say I'm a victim of high expectations. The expectations are going to be there.

What's a priority is going out there and winning ballgames every week.

I've worked on my game, and I don't think it has any holes, no weaknesses. I say that with humility because you can always work to get better. But I run inside, I run outside, and I'm just not a guy you have to take off the field for certain packages.

When we go out there, we have fun, but we get to work, and I think we're at our best when we're having fun. Having fun is key.

I'm a guy who expects a lot from himself.

Notre Dame was my dream school growing up. But in recruiting, they had some other plans, what position they wanted me to play.

I wasn't going to play on defense in college.

I am tired of hearing about Coach Harbaugh; I think he needs to get in check with reality because, at the end of the day, you can't talk smack about a rivalry when you haven't won a rivalry game. You got to win ballgames to be able to talk behind it.

I'm a guy who can play all three downs, and I excel in all areas of the game.

The criticism is what I expect, honestly, because I'm criticizing myself every day when I come in here and watch that film. I'm trying to get better.

I have a lot of great players around me. I have the best O-line in football. It's what's expected.

It's always great to get more reps.

The more you see, the more you're going to learn. Just got to take advantage of the opportunity and get ready to play ball.

I just like the ball in my hands whether I'm running it or catching it.

It would be special, just to know I had the best rookie season a running back has had in this league, especially a record that's been however old it is.

That's something I kind of started Week 1, so when it got to where I'm getting a little beat up, I have a routine already for getting my body back together. Just getting in the cold tank, making sure you're getting massages.

I think I probably have one of the easiest jobs in America. I get to run behind the best O-line in America.

I feel blessed. All the great running backs that have come through Ohio State - Archie Griffin, Eddie George, Beanie Wells - I'm happy that I was able to carry on that lineage this season.

I'm a versatile guy. I'm a third-down back.
