VoltaireI was ill, and everyone could see it but me.
George BestI want to thank God, obviously for the health, for the talent He’s given me, for my family who supports me, for the things that basketball’s taught me on and off the court. For the people that I’ve been able to meet through the game of basketball.

Dolly PartonI have a difficult time sitting down for long periods.

Angelina JoliePart of my daily regime is my glucosamine and, of course, a multitude of multivitamins. Branched-chain amino acids, glutamine, of course protein. I have one protein shake a day, and that is immediately after my training.
Dwayne JohnsonAIDS itself is subject to incredible stigma.
Bill GatesI firmly believe that sleep and recovery are critical aspects of an effective and holistic training program.

Henry David ThoreauWhen your physical energy and mind combines, it’s great.
Sunil ChhetriContrary to popular belief, I don’t spend a whole lot of time following soccer.

That’s what people are talking about.

Johann Wolfgang von GoetheI have now exactly the same weight I had when I was 18, 20.
