I pledged to become the world's greatest expert in a field I knew nothing about.

Real education enhances the dignity of a human being and increases his or her self-respect. If only the real sense of education could be realized by each individual and carried forward in every field of human activity, the world will be so much a better place to live in.
A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
When grand plans for scientific and defence technologies are made, do the people in power think about the sacrifices the people in the laboratories and fields have to make?
After years of touring you experience music festivals that are mostly the same - where you copy and paste the same experience into a muddy field in California or a muddy field in England.
Aaron Dessner
Any time you go on the field, you want to dominate as a unit.
Aaron Donald
All I can do is do my part and keep trying to open up eyes with what I did on the football field, what I did in my career. Just go out there and try to compete and shock a couple more people.
You have guys that are all over the field that are making a lot of plays, you'll win a lot of games in the NFL.
I feel I can rush the passer well. I feel like I can play the run even better than what I did starting off to when I got in my senior year as far as making plays in the backfield and just being able to break down film a lot better.
Everything I do, I'm always playing music. When I wake up in the morning, I'm playing music. When I'm showering, I've got music playing. When I go to the field, music is playing.
Aaron Judge
I've always had that mindset of, 'OK, I may be hot this month or doing really well this month, but don't get too high, don't get too low - just enjoy it.' Don't ride the rollercoaster, basically. I always thought about it like, I'm not going to an amusement park, I'm going to a baseball field.
Any time you play shortstop or center field, the majority of the baseballs are hit in the middle of the field.
I just felt like Adidas was a brand that really fit me. Not only are they on the field, but off the field stuff.
You have to have a great fielder at shortstop, and you've got to have a guy that has good range and good hands in center field.
When I was younger, I'd always forget stuff. I think there was probably 4-5 times where we'd drive 30 minutes to a town for the baseball tournament, and all of a sudden, I'd get to the field and look in my bag, and I didn't have my cleats. So my dad had to race all the way home to get my cleats and get back before the game started so I could play.
One thing I really liked about David Winfield, man, just... the way he played the game, and such a class act he was on and off the field.
I got a job to do on the field.
This field is not necessarily glamorous, nor does it often produce immediate results, but it seeks to increase our basic understanding of living processes.
Aaron Klug
I think a top-class midfielder needs to be able to tackle, get up and down the pitch, pass, create opportunities, and score goals. That's why I try to do everything; that's what I judge my game on.
Aaron Ramsey
Being a midfielder, I need to get up and down, whether it's to get back and defend or get away from my opposite number. Extra effort in training makes all the difference.
I want to be the complete midfielder, someone who can defend and attack. Steven Gerrard is someone who's done that very well over the years, and he is someone I am trying to emulate.
I am a central midfielder, and that's where I like to be.
Hopefully I can be one of the best midfielders in the world. That's what drives me on: to try and achieve that and to try and go on and win many things.
Central midfield has been my main position, but I'll play wherever the gaffer wants me.
In all ways, I want to be better in all of these things that top midfielders can do.
I want to keep on improving as a player and become the best... one of the best midfielders in my position in the world.
As a midfielder, you have to have vision. If you see an opening that might create an opportunity, you have to believe in yourself and go for it; a 40-yard pass or an eye-of-the-needle ball. You have to feel you are going to make it. That's the way I play. I have a picture in my mind, and I go for it.
In general, when you have success on the field, you're more popular, and you have that fame that comes with it. You realize you're in the public eye more, and you've got to be a little bit more careful about some of the things you're doing out in public and make sure you're smart about the things you say.
I get nervous before openings or premieres or when someone's reading a new script, and I get nervous when my daughter isn't in my immediate field of vision.
People lament that there's no roles being written for South Asian or Muslim characters. But their parents don't want their children to go into the entertainment field. You don't get it both ways.
For my part, I am not a great believer in bad luck on the cricket field, in business - in fact, in any walk of life.
When I'm fielding at point, I'm running all over that field, and I'm really tired by the end of the innings.
I do enjoy fielding.
I have been massively proud to have played for and, indeed, captain my country on the cricket field.
I'm not a nice guy on the field, and I've never really respected a guy who's been a 'nice guy' on the field. I want opposition to be hard, to play to win the game for their team.
An IPL match may be decided when the ball passes inches beyond the grasp of a fielder on the boundary or when a direct hit catches a batsman inches short of the crease.
'Until Friday Night' is the first book in my new young adult series, 'The Field Party.'
Football games on Friday nights followed by field parties every weekend was how I spent my high school years.
I grew up in a small town in Alabama, and there wasn't much in the way of entertainment, so like our older siblings before us, we drove our pickup trucks out into the hayfield and lit a bonfire.
It's really shocking to see what the military can do, strip you of any personality, turn you into an aggressive, sociopathic sadist before even going into a battlefield.
I have never once dribbled the whole field and scored a goal by myself.
When I was in college, I learned to really take care of my body and figured out what works best for me and what doesn't work for me when it comes to my nutrition. That helped so much on the field because soccer is such a fitness-oriented game.
Liverpool is a club that needs no introduction. I was impatient to play at Anfield, I wanted to feel the atmosphere.
As a child, the paddy field was my playground.
We go fish, we also catch fighting fish, looking for birds and it was for kampong people, the paddy field was our the play field for the children.
The mystic cords of memory, stretching from every battlefield and patriot grave to every living heart and hearthstone, all over this broad land, will yet swell the chorus of the Union, when again touched, as surely they will be, by the angels of our nature.
I don't think healthcare's a right. The only right you have is the ability to go out on an even playing field and work, and then purchase health insurance, or whatever it is.
Law graduates have always ended up in business, government, journalism and other fields. Law schools could do more to build these subjects into their coursework.
By the end of my career I just really hated being out there on that field and being subjected to what was happening to me.
The football field was a place where I could express myself and just be me. Play the game as well as you can and that's what you're judged on. Not the colour of your skin, or your beliefs, or the conversation you have around racism.
I was very lucky to have fantastic leaders before me in Paul Kelly, Leo Barry, Brett Kirk, Craig Bolton, Mick O'Loughlin and Stuart Maxfield, and all of those players led in completely different ways.
