Interestingly enough, the game I played the most ever was Street Fighter II, back in the day. That would probably still stick as one of my favourite games. Just being a bit of an ’80s guy. – Sharlto Copley
We have to get better at that. All of the Stanley Cup winning teams throughout the past few seasons, when they needed to play defense, they did it. If you can play defense, that’s when you know it’s game over. – Steve Yzerman
I met Powel Crosley at an All-Star Game in 1935. He was familiar, of course, with our winning record at Rochester. We seemed to hit it off immediately, and the following year, when he was looking for a successor to Larry MacPhail, he thought of me. – Warren Giles
Gamers both demand and deserve novelty. They need something new. As a game developer, one of my rules is there will be at least one thing in every game that I worked on that no one on the planet has seen before. – Warren Spector
We must not let ourselves get driven off course, no matter what happens we must stick to our natural game. – Zinedine Zidane

Only he, who penetrates into the depth of the game, can express his personality in it. – Vladimir Kramnik

I had to work on the fundamentals of the game because in league, the position I played, it was just bash and crash. – Sonny Bill Williams
Ted Williams is one of the best hitters ever to play the game, and I didn’t get a chance to see him play, so all I could do was read books and look at pictures. – Tony Gwynn
Before a game, I avoid having a heavy meal so that I don’t feel sleepy at the board. You eat to be healthy, and that generally takes care of everything. Also, you can’t be too finicky, since at tournaments you tend to eat at restaurants here and there. But, as long as you’re eating sensibly, it’s all good. – Viswanathan Anand
I always knew where I was going eventually, so it helped me to stay at home for three years. It helped me to develop my game. But it also helped me off the ice. Life here is way different, and I was able to get older. – Saku Koivu
Before a game, you know, I can take off my helmet, run over there and spend a few moments with someone who is dealing with so much more than I’ve ever had to deal with and to love on them and care about them and in front of thousands and thousands of people, you know, let them know that they’re more important than all of this. – Tim Tebow
Badminton will gain momentum in a big manner after my win in Olympics. More players will participate in the game now. – Saina Nehwal

I’ve always loved to play games, and face it: investing is one big game. You need to be decisive, open-minded, flexible and competitive. – Stanley Druckenmiller
There’s nothing like playing. You can coach and you can be around the game, but there is nothing like playing. It’s just so much fun. – Steve Largent
If kids see you on the street and they want an autograph, that’s a big honour so I spend half an hour before I get in the ground and 40 minutes to an hour after the game with the Everton fans signing autographs. – Timothy F. Cahill
Personally I find there is just as much if not more creativity among game makers as there is among feature filmmakers. – Wesley Snipes
I always envisioned myself being a rapper and being in the game and having success, but you never know what it feels like or how you’re going to be when you’re there. – Wiz Khalifa
I’ve got a PowerPoint deck that I use for internal presentations, and there’s a slide on it that asks, ‘What percentage of your game is combat versus exploration versus puzzle solving versus platforming,’ and I refuse to answer that question. – Warren Spector
