Essentially, it is the director who is the creative head of a film. The final authority on all decisions lies with the director. That is how it should be. And then other team members can give their creative inputs.
Aamir Khan
I'm going to try and do my job and try to make as many plays as I can and help my team win.
Aaron Donald
I've got leverage on a guy that's 6-6, and I'm strong enough to push 600-plus pounds off on a double-team.
My main focus is playing football and giving it all I got. I'm trying to go out there and make plays and help my team win.
At the end of the day you never know what team still wants what player. You just never know with the draft.
I'm just going out there and doing my job, so whatever it is - if it's a hard slide protection, if it's a double team, or even a triple team or a chip - whatever it is, I'm just finding ways to win, so that's about it.
I'm just playing my game and trying to help my team win. Whatever happens, happens.
It ain't just one guy, it's a team game, and I'll get myself better, I'll keep working on my technique and trying to find ways to free myself and keep making plays.
I've got a good team, got great agents that I know are going to handle the business side, and I trust those guys.
I don't care if it was 2 o'clock in the morning after a night game. I had to break down the film by myself before I watched it with the team. I wanted to see everything I did wrong and did right or I wouldn't be able to sleep.
It's what you work for and grind for. Just to get out there and play the game and try to help your team to win. And in doing that, you just help yourself.
Just have to be smart. Can't hurt your team.
I grew up playing hockey and some football, and I always think about the first time you walk into the locker room on a new team. The cliques are looking at you funny, and you make one friend, but then they're trying to stab you in the back.
Aaron Douglas
Our experience on 'Avatar' heavily influenced how we approached 'The Dragon Prince' and how we built our team.
Aaron Ehasz
If your team is in the trenches, you've got to be in the trenches with them.
Aaron Judge
You define great players as guys that are out there grinding, battling every day with their team.
I never want to play timid or scared of anything, especially when my pitcher or my teammates are out there going 100 percent.
That's your dream, to play professional baseball. When you get the opportunity like that, getting drafted - especially by Oakland, a California team, pretty close to home - it was tempting. At the time, I just didn't think I was ready or mature enough mentally or physically to start pro ball.
When you're on the road, fans pay to cheer on their team and boo the other team; that's just part of it. That's what they're supposed to do. I expect it. I think everybody expects that.
When I think about 2017, I feel like it was just another year. It was a whirlwind, but I wouldn't have wanted it to play out any other way. I'm glad I was in New York. There's nowhere else I would rather play, and there's no other group of teammates that I would rather be around.
I just focus on what the team needs me to do to win.
I know a lot is expected of me, but I'm surrounded by some great teammates.
My main focus is, 'What can I do today to help the team win the ballgame?' You have those blinders on. It helps you focus.
I've just got to go in there and get some quality at-bats and do my job and help the team win any way I can.
I was on the snowboard team at my school, but that was the only sports team I was on. I played soccer growing up in elementary school.
I've got to be honest and say that, growing up, I wasn't a big sports guy, but I love the camaraderie. I just love people getting together, fighting for a team and getting super-emotional about it.
I try to give my best for the team, help the team, and try and go out there and play the best I can for myself as well.
I am not the life and soul of the camp, but I do speak a lot throughout the team and to everyone.
The Premier League used to be two teams going for the title, but it has come on a long way since then.
You have to give 100 percent in the Champions League, as you're up against the biggest teams.
I like to be involved as much as I can in the game, and in the middle, you're definitely the heartbeat of the team. When you're on the right, you can go minutes without seeing the ball, and that's a long time when you're out on the pitch.
Manchester City are a big team, and Chelsea are a big team.
You have to be on top of your game, train hard every day, and try to convince the boss throughout the week that he should put you in the team.
I was playing first-team football at Cardiff at 16.
I went to University of Illinois team camp. And that was a big deal for me. I got MVP of the camp, but they offered another kid from the camp, which was fine. I laughed with the couple coaches I know who were there at the time, who were part of recruiting the other guy.
The beautiful thing about the NFL season is to see a team come together after they get to know each other in the spring and summer. You then go through adversity together and see how you respond. The teams that can respond in a positive way are the teams that are going to be there in the end.
How you deal with adversity says a lot about the kind of players you've got and the kind of team we've got.
I want to be the best. I want to be counted on by my teammates. I want to be counted on by this organization and the fans. I want to be someone they know is going to bring it every single week. I prepare to be the best.
That's what really motivates me: to make my coaches proud, my teammates proud, and the fans proud.
I've gotten to learn what's important in life and what's not important, and what to spend energy on and what not to. I don't have a family like some of my teammates, but I have a lot of things pulling at me that I have to put my energy into.
I know my role on this team, and I'm expected to prepare and to perform every week and play well. I relish that opportunity - to be somebody the guys can count on week in and week out, to play really well. That's what really motivates me: to make my coaches proud, my teammates proud, and the fans proud.
When it comes to setting the market values, I let that stuff take care of itself. I know my value in this league, and I know the team appreciates me. I'm going to continue to make myself an indispensable part of this roster. When you do that, when your time comes up to get a contract, you usually get a contract extension.
As you get older, the summer is less of a vacation and more of a training period by yourself away from the team. It's exciting for me. I felt like I've been really getting better as far as my conditioning every single season as I get older.
I hope I'm building a record of being a good team player and not just standing for my principles but being willing to work for them. I think when you do that and you work really hard, people take notice.
I like to entertain the crowd. Personally I like to entertain my team-mates first, but when the crowd gets going, it is amazing.
As a captain, I can't make the same mistake twice. As a player, you can get away with that, but if the captain does that, then it affects the whole team.
The interests of the team must always outweigh the interests of any individual, including me.
To cross the line for the team, to have an impact on winning the game - that's why I play this game.
It will never be much fun until a Proteas team finally goes out and wins one of these ICC limited-overs tournaments. That will happen one day.
I believe all teams choke in certain situations.
