One thing I learned when struggling, you got to get to your spots.

I want to make it to the championship.

I have confidence in myself.

I really enjoy watching on the side because I can really see the game from a different perspective.

Eight minutes is a long time in basketball.

I see a lot of people judging me and my rookie season, but I'm not really worried about struggling. I know I'm only going to get better.

I want to play years in this league.

Playing quarterback you have to have quick reactions. You've got to be able to know pretty much everything that's going on on the field, lateral quickness, lateral movements in the pocket.

Football is a little bit different as far as lifting weights. We lifted weights every day. It's a different type of sport. So those things, different aspects, they help you in basketball.

Like I tell myself all the time, you have to keep shooting. I'm not going to stop shooting.

There's a lot of players that get starstruck.

Everyone knows Summer League isn't the real deal.

Overseas and going straight to the NBA wasn't even an option.

People have different mentalities, different loves.

I love the military, of course, but it wasn't my thing. Sports was my thing.

I grew up playing sports. But I always celebrate Veterans Day.

Starting should be a goal for every rookie.

I have to work my way up. There's nothing guaranteed in this league.

When I used to get the ball on the wing, I'd go fast and I'd go right. Veterans in this league, they watch film. They're definitely going to strategize. They know you like to go right. They know what your moves are.

You got to be able when you get the ball, slow it down, read the defense, call for a pick, and go off a pick-and-roll instead of going isolation all the time. Just be able to use that screen.

A lot of people think you go to a top college, you come into the NBA and it'll be all a breeze and easy. It's not like that.

I'm an all-around type player.

A lot of people say you can't make the league if you can't play defense, so I really play really good defense. That's something I really pride myself on.

It's not really in my genes to be walking around looking like a body builder.

My favorite Subway sandwiches are meatball and chipotle chicken.

Personally, I wanna be in an All-Star Game. Get All-NBA.

I played football until my sophomore year of high school, then I stopped.

My whole family growing up played sports, so I'm definitely from a strong sporting background.

The competitive spirit and the way we worked hard growing up came naturally to me from my family.

My dad really pushed me, my brother and my sisters from young to be great. We've taken the time and put a lot of work in, so I'm sure we can all go on and achieve some great things.

At Kentucky, the environment and the coaching staff is going to prepare you for the next level, but the way we played in college... there's not a lot of spacing in college at all. So, I mean, you've just got to be able to play off the ball.

In pick-and-roll situations, I feel like the NBA is all pick-and-rolls, so I want to be able to handle the ball in pick-and-rolls and make the right read, make the right passes, and make plays for my teammates.

I'm going to keep shooting, keep getting in the gym, keep working.

I would love to play for Leonard Hamilton and follow in the footsteps of my father at Florida State, where he played wide receiver and after a great career as a Seminole was drafted into the NFL.

At Kentucky, I was kind of a role player.

In college, I played a lot of 3.

Puma does a really good job with its athletes and providing what we want.

Every coach has told me I'm positionless. They want me to play an all around type of game.

My dad coached pretty much my whole life. I think he stopped coaching me when I got to the seventh, eighth grade, serious AAU, when I started getting recruited and stuff like that.

When you see how people in the developing world react and how they use a camera, you realise how narcissistic we are and how the filming of ourselves and thinking that we're interesting enough to care about is odd.

When you look at almost every submarine movie, to some degree or another, there's this 'Moby Dick' element, this Ahab element to them.

I'm not particularly ethnically Scottish; I have one grandfather who is Scottish, although he's called Macdonald, and you don't get a lot more Scottish than that. The Scottish part of my family are from Skye, and I've always been very aware of that - always been very attracted to Scottish subject matter, I guess.

It's nice to stretch in different directions and use different muscles. You can get swallowed into Hollywood, where it's all about bums on seats and how commercial a film is.

The tradition has always been that in Roman films, the Romans are always British, and it's usually posh British: Laurence Olivier and his ilk. My take on all this was that it's a metaphor for empire and the end of empire.

If there's a principle really worth sticking up for, I'll go the whole way.

I've fallen out very badly with some of the subjects I've interviewed, because they see their lives a certain way; to step into a cinema and see your life depicted in another way can come as a terrible shock.

The only obligation you have as a film-maker is to tell your version of the truth and to use your film to illuminate reality. Whatever that means.

No man, no woman is without their flaws.

'Uprising' was one of the first three or four albums I ever bought in 1980 when I was 13, and that had a strong impact on me.

For everybody in the world, the answers to the mysteries in your life usually lie in your childhood, your upbringing, and your parents.
