Hockey
Playing hockey, there were a lot of guys bigger than me, so I knew I was going to get hit and have to deal with it. Gotta hit back.
- Mike Weir

Volleyball
Every game is an opportunity to measure yourself against your own potential.

Swimming
Swimming is probably the ultimate of burnout sports. It's ironic because millions of people who swim as their regular exercise love the meditation aspect of it; you don't wind up with any orthopedic injuries. But when you swim at a world class level for hours and hours - the loneness of the long distance runner.
- Diana Nyad

Rugby
I thought I would have a quiet pint … and about 17 noisy ones.
- Gareth Chilcott

Swimming
I just learned how to scuba dive. I'd been scared to rely on one little air hose for oxygen, but swimming with all those fish is exhilarating.

Cycling can be lonely, but in a good way. It gives you a moment to breathe and think, and get away from what you're working on.
- David Byrne

Cycling
If you go (with a break), you can either win or not win. If you don't go fot it, you definitely won't win.

Boxing
The people united will never be defeated
- Julio César Chávez

Skiing
When I started to sing, my mother would have me engaged to perform at the Women's Christian Temperance Union national or annual meetings. I would hate doing this because I wanted to play baseball or go off skiing.
- Maureen Forrester

Volleyball
The will to win is more important than the skill to win. It is possible to achieve only what you actively pursue. Cogito, ergo sum. I think, therefore, I am. Keep your head high and work hard every day, because you'll never get that day back.
- Lloy Ball
2
Basketball
You learn more from losing than winning. You learn how to keep going.
- Morgan Wootten
1
Tennis
I've stayed calm when I'm winning and I've stayed calm when I've lost. Tennis is a sport where we have a lot of tournaments every week, so you can't celebrate a lot when you have big victories, and you cannot get too down when you're losing, as in a few days you'll be in the next tournament and you'll have to be ready with that.
- Rafael Nadal

Lacrosse
The last thing we can afford right now is to make excuses. We're inexperienced at some spots, that's the way it is. We have injuries, so does everyone, that's the way it is.
- Dave Pietramala

Lacrosse
Be fast on the field physically, but play slow mentally. Basically, play hard but play smart.

Golf
I have a tip that can take five strokes off of anyone's game: It's called an eraser
- Arnold Palmer
5
Tennis
Most players who play tennis love the game. But I think you also have to respect it. You want to do everything you can in your power to do your best. And for me, I know I get insane guilt if I go home at the end of the day and don't feel I've done everything I can. If I know I could have done something better, I have this uneasy feeling.
- Andy Roddick

Skiing
Skiing takes so much out of me, and when I start a family, I want to do it 100%.
