You've got to let your talents shine and play and trust the guys you play with.

I think the big thing with Philly is I have such a great relationship with all the personnel decision makers that if there ever does come a day where I am traded or something does happen, it's going to be an open conversation.

Carson Wentz, he's always continuing to improve.

Coach Pederson is the one who drafted me. He was the only coach who flew down to Texas and worked me out. I was only worked out by one team, and that was by Coach Pederson... the Philadelphia Eagles took a chance on me.

In sports, everything is a process.

I do like Uggs.

All glory to God.

Things happen fast. That's this league. You can't slow down, because it's going.

We're all human; we all have weaknesses.

I know when I listen to people speak and they share their weaknesses, I'm listening, because I can resonate.

I'm not living in the past.

There's definitely times when I'm tempted to look at the future, like any of us are. I'd be lying if that wasn't the case. But you have to reel back in and stay in the present.

The grass isn't always greener on the other side.

I've been in games where execution hasn't gone like you want it. The key is you remain confident because you know who you are.

I just want to thank the good Lord for giving me the ability to play the game I love.

After my time with a certain NFL team, I wanted to retire.

We're professional athletes, and we have moments where we step back, and we have to think and assess everything in life.

I wouldn't be out here without God, without Jesus in my life.

I think when you look at a struggle in your life, just know that's just an opportunity for your character to grow.

Third down is a big thing with a quarterback: pinpoint accuracy, making good decisions.

I love my family, love being with them, and that's what I stick to.

I love the game of football, love getting better. My teammates know me, and I show them who I am in the locker room and don't change on the field.

I loved my time in Philadelphia. I loved the fanbase, the people, and they will tell you the same thing.

I'm a Christian.

Having a child, that's huge. I get to go home and hug my daughter. That's the greatest thing in the world.

The thing I've always admired about Eagles fans is that it's not fans; it's family. It's generational.

I've never been great at social media.

I'm just a quarterback. I'm just who I am.

On a daily basis, I have to fight the internal battle to keep my priorities straight.

That alleviates a lot of the pressure when you know every single guy is playing for each other.

Any time you've played different sports - for me, it has always been basketball; that is an instinctual sport. You're dribbling the ball, passing. I'm sure that has helped me a lot along the line with helping with my football instincts.

I'm not boisterous. I just let the work speak for itself.

I have fun, but I don't always want it to be on camera.

If you prepare well and you play smart, there's times you'll dirt the ball or throw it away if you feel it's not there, but there's other times when you have to be aggressive and let your guys make plays.

I'm not Superman.

There's always going to be adversity.

I think there are different kinds of quarterbacks, and if you look at any offense, there are different kind of quarterbacks, but you play to the strengths of whoever the quarterback is for the team.

If you want to be a quarterback in this league or Pee-Wee, you've got to believe, 'Hey, I'm the guy.'

You travel, and there's Eagles fans everywhere.

Peace is not a state - it is a choice, and you have to remake it every day. It's possible to get a sort of stability, a habit of peace, but it's like an egg balanced, spinning, on its point: lose your momentum, and your equilibrium is gone, too.

The First World War was a horror of gas, industrialised slaughter, fear, and appalling human suffering.

I'm not an absolutist about free speech. Intellectually, I believe that most of the time it's better to let things get said, argue them, and put lies and stupidities to rest. Practically, I know that newspapers rarely issue corrections with the same prominence they give to denouncements - and Twitter, by its nature, never does.

I read my father's books growing up. I thought then and I still think now that his writing is wonderful. It delights and infuriates me in equal measure that he's still that good.

In a novel, even if you put a country in the wrong hemisphere, which I've done, I can always claim it was part of the additional weirdness of the story.

Executive power in any nation arguably has more in common with executive power in another country than with the citizens it should serve.

I do not propose that everyone in Guantanamo or its evil twin at Bagram is innocent. I just don't believe we should incarcerate people without trial and torture them or facilitate and profit from their torture.

We are bodies which think, and we're at home with steampunk because it is an ethos of design and creativity which acknowledges the humanly physical: that which we can understand with our fingers.

Names aren't just coathooks, they're coats. They're the first thing anyone knows about you.

I do public appearances. I'm bluff, hearty, goofy. I wear loud clothes, and I read the funny bits. I occasionally get taken to task for one thing or another, and I acknowledge my fault, my flaw, my failure, and I move on.

In a social context, digital technology introduces you to neighbours of the mind - people who are separated by distance, but close to you in thought and interest.
