To conquer without risk is to triumph without glory.

What got me was Vinnie Anderson running out with tears in his eyes, it gave me goosebumps and fired me up. Seeing tears in one of the up-and-coming Kiwi players is just awesome and thats what its all about - passion and pride in your jersey.

We had our name on our jersey and the silver fern on our heart so we just looked at that and it paid off in the end.

Henry Rollins

I don't want to know. I don't need it. I don't want the information that millions of people have. I don't want to be fed these boring facts and figures. Then you'll become one of the masses. I'd rather starve my mind a bit and have to search out nutrition in stranger places.
Henry Rollins

Want a good body? Work at it. Want to be a success? Work at it. Want to be truly exceptional? Be a touch insane...You need a little bit of insanity to do great things.
Henry Rollins

Hope is the last thing a person does before they are defeated.
Henry Rollins

Go without a coat when it's cold; find out what cold is. Go hungry; keep your existence lean. Wear away the fat, get down to the lean tissue and see what it's all about. The only time you define your character is when you go without. In times of hardship, you find out what you're made of and what you're capable of. If you're never tested, you'll never define you character.
Henry Rollins

Sometimes we need to look at the world with different eyes.
Ben Okri

The secret of strength is in the spirit. Life is often like fighting, and sometimes you have to draw power from your eyes, or your toes or from your heart.
Ben Okri

One great thought can change the dreams of the world. One great action, lived all the way to the sea, can change the history of the world.
Ben Okri

Stories can conquer fear, you know. They can make the heart bigger.
