Game
(page 2)
I'm attracted to soccer's capacity for beauty. When well played, the game is a dance with a ball.
There's a difference between fair game and playing games.
Success doesn't necessarily come from breakthrough innovation but from flawless execution. A great strategy alone won't win a game or a battle; the win comes from basic blocking and tackling.
In life, so many things are taken for granted, but one thing I can honestly say is that I took every day, enjoyed the game of putting on that uniform and playing the great game of baseball.
I played the game one way. I gave it everything I had. It doesn't take any ability to hustle.
I've figured out that life in general is a team effort; it's a team game.
I bought a company in the mid-'90s called Dexter Shoe and paid $400 million for it. And it went to zero. And I gave about $400 million worth of Berkshire stock, which is probably now worth $400 billion. But I've made lots of dumb decisions. That's part of the game.
Today, no leader can afford to be indifferent to the challenge of engaging employees in the work of creating the future. Engagement may have been optional in the past, but it's pretty much the whole game today.
Leadership is not a popularity contest; it's about leaving your ego at the door. The name of the game is to lead without a title.
In the game of 'Survivor', there is no time for regrets.
There are people who claim to be instinctive cooks, who never follow recipes or weigh anything at all. All I can say is they're not very fussy about what they eat. For me, cooking is an exact art and not some casual game.
Life is like a game of cards. The hand you are dealt is determinism; the way you play it is free will.
I'm a football fanatic. I love the game of football. I love learning new things, and I love being taught things. So I try to learn as much as I can, and even at a young age, I was really focused on how to be better and trying to learn all the techniques.
If you have the opportunity to play this game of life you need to appreciate every moment. A lot of people don't appreciate the moment until it's passed.
In the game of love, the losers are more celebrated than the winners.
I will see this game of life out to its bitter end.
Life is a song — sing it. Life is a game — play it. Life is a challenge — meet it. Life is a dream — realize it. Life is a sacrifice — offer it. Life is love — enjoy it.
Anyone can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a dad, and that's why I call you dad, because you are so special to me. You taught me the game and you taught me how to play it right.
If I'm in the car after a bad game, I may think about ways I need to improve. But the second I reach home, the game's over. Work doesn't come inside with me. Same thing in reverse — I don't bring my personal life into the ballpark. Learning to keep it all separate has made life easier.
Just play. Have fun. Enjoy the game.
