Today, I am blessed to be living a dream. And yet, if it all went away tomorrow, I know I would still have peace.
I think we have more athleticism, I think we have more pace and that's going to be important to deal with Ghana.
Fur only looks good on its original owner. Be comfortable in your own skin, and let animals keep theirs.
When the whistle blows, I’m completely exhausted, physically and mentally. I get in the locker room and I sit down and I just exhale. Finally, the danger is over.
Some goalkeepers are really sexy with their feet. I have a little sexiness with my feet, but I don't like to bring it out.
No, we discuss it as fans. When we see the game, we talk about what we thought was a call or a foul or no foul. We just have to deal with that in the game. There's gonna be plenty more of those. Referees are humans, so it's not a problem.
The most important thing in my life is Christ.
It will take a nation of millions to hold me back.
The most important thing in my life is Christ. He’s more important to me than winning or losing or whether I’m playing or not. Everything else is just a bonus.

Manchester United could have any goalkeeper in the world. I was a 23-year-old kid from New Jersey who, from an early age, had to cope with Tourettes Syndrome, a brain disorder that can trigger speech and facial tics, vocal outbursts and obsessive compulsive behavior.

Every old goalkeeper loses a step at some point, but you can gain that back through experience.
I want to do things in my community, get out of the public eye, just be normal. You get your 15 minutes of fame, I hear, and I've had 14. The clock's ticking.
Winning is fun, but those moments that you can touch someone's life in a very positive way are better.
Good keepers sniff out attacks whether with the feet or a throw out.
And yet, if it all went away tomorrow, I know I would still have peace. That probably sounds crazy to most people, but that’s the kind of peace Christ gives. It is rooted in His love, and it surpasses all understanding.
I wanted to be a soccer player; I wanted to do it at the highest level.
