Watching him do this really made me believe that I could too.

• People who write about issues like poverty or terrorism are a part of the elite, and the distance between the elite and nonelite is growing very fast.

• For me, the biggest champions out there are not just on the field, but also off the field. Some of the biggest champions around the world, the David Beckhams, the Lebron Jameses, they all hold themselves so well off the field, and do so many great things for the community and socially. So I think it's not just about how you perform on the field, but how you hold yourself off it.

You can't - rogue regimes can't have nuclear weapons, and you can't gas your own people.
