I get 0.5 seconds to react to a ball, sometimes even less than that. I can't be thinking of what XYZ has said about me. I need to surrender myself to my natural instincts. My subconscious mind knows exactly what to do. It is trained to react. At home, my family doesn't discuss media coverage.

Only family films from the '90s.

It was always worth it. "For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory."

Each man followed his own star through so much pain because he knew it, and at journey's end all the innumerable lights would glow into one.
