The journey is never ending. There's always gonna be growth, improvement, adversity; you just gotta take it all in and do what's right, continue to grow, continue to live in the moment.
Antonio Brown
In a competition, there's always winners and losers. And I think everyone is here to win, which makes it fun for us all.
Blue is the color of peace. Water is blue. I like the color blue because it just puts me at peace. The patriotic symbol is blue. I just like blue.
I'm a good guy with a good heart, and I have good intentions.
If you want to be the best, you can't take the path of least resistance. Every morning, you wake up, and your mind tells you it's too early, and your body tells you you're a little too sore, but you've got to look deep within yourself and know what you want and what you're striving for.
You can get excited and feel unstoppable, but every week presents a new challenge. Each week, you have to work and get better.
Nutrition is important, training is important - but so are rest and recovery, massages, acupuncture. Your body is your temple, and you've got to take care of it.
You get caught up thinking about the future, you lose sight of the present.
Karma is karma. Karma is in life. You do the wrong things, you get the wrong things out of it.
The battle of getting better is never ending.
I am filled with so much sincerity and gratitude to know where I came from and what I'm doing now.
People are brainwashed into believing that Italy is the seat of luxury manufacturing. If it's made in Italy, it must be good. That's just hype. Quality is where you bring it.
Anytime you get an opportunity to put more fun into the game, that's good. I've got a lot of positive energy.
My goal is always to get better every day. No one will ever outwork me. That's how it will always be for me. That will never change.
Yeah, I've always been a big Chunky Soup guy. I'm digging all the new Chunky Maxx flavors, which are packed with protein. Specifically, the black angus beef.
At the end of every year, I always get a blood test to see what's on the inside of my body. You've got to see what you put into your body, not just care about the outside of your body - make sure you get in all the supplements and all the protein and all the carbs and the low cholesterol.
I think Von Miller's got great style. For a defensive end, I think he has receiver-type style, swag.
All great players want to be the reason the team wins.
When you see people taking shots who were on the same team and wearing the same jerseys, that's a sign of not having that team camaraderie.
It's the NFL. It's hard to score touchdowns.
I know the position I'm in. Guys are going to try and take me out, but I got to be able to overcome it all and not let those type of things affect me.
I started playing full-equipment football when I was 6 years old. My mom actually got me started in it.
We gotta show up and pay attention to details, embracing the process of hard work, and developing our bodies and minds to get ready for the season.
The NFL does a great job of taking care of the players.
It's always great to engage with people. You never know who you can make an effect on. And I love interacting with the fans, hearing what they have to say and joking around with them. Anytime I can reach out online and give encouragement, motivate people, be a better citizen, that's what it's all about, man.
I lift weights in the offseason about four times a week; during the season, I'll lift three times a week. The weight training is key because most guys come in during the summertime as strong as they are going to get, and they fizzle down as the year starts.
You have to take care of your guys. If a guy underperforms, you get rid of him. If a guy overperforms, you take care of him.
I found out there is a production paradise in Brazil. I was able to make my second collection for less money but without sacrificing quality. More importantly, manufacturing in Brazil also fits in with my global initiative: to provide work and empowerment in a third-world country.
I probably do 10 to 12 Snapchats a day. Spending time with my family or my chef, my workouts, my outfits, or any events I'm attending. Playing music in the car is a big one for me. Dancing sometimes. Or asking people, 'How's business?'
Being passed up by teams because of my size made me hungry. I've seen a lot of first-round guys who come in and never really do nothing because they may not appreciate the opportunity because everything has been given to them. I think guys who come from the bottom understand how hard it is, so they appreciate the opportunities more.
If you play this game long enough, you're going to get your tail kicked at least once.
I try to swim once or twice a week. I basically hold my breath for, like, 12 laps, down and back, to kind of expand my lungs so that I can have better breathing when it comes down to two-minute drives where you've got to play a lot of plays all in one series and you're hurrying up.
Spreading my love and extending my hand is what life's all about.
I want to be known as a guy who, regardless of circumstance, always gave 100 percent, always went the hardest and the smartest. Pray up, inspiration to God, put in what I get out.
I've got to take responsibility and be a representative, not only for the Steelers but myself, my family. I've got to be smart.
I know everything I do is going to be magnified.
I want to bring more manufacturing jobs to America. For starters, I want to be behind the initative to build a manufacturing facility in Atlanta.
I play with a lot of great peers around the NFL - to even be mentioned with those guys is something special.
You've got to motivate the fans and the people to get your teeth cleaned. It's called daily hygiene. You've got to take care of yourself.
You don't throw your quarterback under the bus, the guy who makes you who you are.
You've just got to train hard. Conditioning is key, recovery is key. As hard as you work, recovery is just as important. All the soft-tissue work daily, all the things that keep me clean. And you've always got to be aware of what you're eating, what you're putting inside your body. That's key as well.
Matt Ryan does a great job of throwing the ball. No quarterback within the 20 to 25 yard range is throwing the ball any better than Matt Ryan.
When everyone turned away, the only person I could turn to was God within myself, and that is what I continue to rely on.
Over the course of the game, you can't let negativity get in your head. Any time a guy playing negative upon emotion, it's not going to be a great day.
Allowing guys to celebrate and get the fans involved and excited - it makes the game better.
It's not about me. It's about the Steelers.
We're focused on ourselves and winning our games and handling our business. We'll let the chips fall in place.
I always modeled my game after the guys from Miami. Chad Ochocinco, Santana Moss, Andre Johnson. I used to love Roscoe Parrish as a returner.
If you're not a first-round pick or you're not 6-2, they always say you can't be the best. But the only time there's a weight class is before the draft. This is the NFL. It's all about what you do. I can run past guys and get done what I need to. I can do everything the big guy can do.
I'm passionate about the game. Anytime you work as hard and a play doesn't go the way you wanted, you get frustrated.
