In college, I joined a team Bible study. God's Word brought me peace and a desire for a relationship with Him.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
It's always great to be home and play in front of family and friends, especially for a big game.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
I have a lot of great memories of playing in Dallas as a kid, and I'm proud to represent Nacogdoches.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
I play to the best of my abilities and am thankful for the many opportunities and amazing success He has given me. Through it all, I want to do right, not make mistakes, and live a life that is pleasing to Him.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
Now my faith in Christ is what gives me confidence for the future. I know that through both good times and bad, He is faithful and will watch over me.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
For a number of years, I struggled and put distance between God and me. But He was faithful and patient and provided gradual healing and strength.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
The most important thing is the time you spend with the coach and what you all achieve.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
Pressure brings the best out of people, or it can bring the worst out. It's just how you use it.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
I got to experience being captain in the World Cup. For me, that was something special, and I'll always kind of remember, but it's never been a big thing for me to be captain.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
I never really thought of myself as a captain. I always thought of myself as a guy trying to win games, a guy who could look back and have no regrets.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
The only way you're going to make it is to have a hunger for success and a will to win. That's something that's always pushed me.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
It's a compliment that people think that I'm a good player. I remember when people didn't think I was good. And I remember being a rookie coming into the league with a big chip on my shoulder trying to prove myself.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
If someone has your arms around you, I'm not going to sit there and be like, 'OK, this is fine.' I'm going to try to bust out of it and get in position to score a goal.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
You're just grateful for every day, grateful for every game you get to play in because you never know when it's going to be taken from you.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
If you're having sequences where you're keeping 20 passes or more, then you're only growing in confidence in the game.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
It's always difficult, when you have such a quick turnaround and a long flight, to try to get ready for a game so quickly.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
I've been playing 90 minutes in MLS games. But when you're playing internationally in World Cup qualifiers, there's a little bit extra incentive there. It's win or go home.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
It's just staying focused and working hard; that's all I've ever done. I was fortunate enough that things worked out for me. It doesn't happen all the time, but I don't let bumps in the road throw me off course.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
Whatever position allows me to get touches in the attacking third, that's the position I like the most.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
You always want to score as many goals as possible, but the most important thing is if the team does well.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
It's easier to destroy than it is to create, but I've always enjoyed the creative aspect of the game.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
Family comes together when you deal with hard times because it's the only way you know how to cope.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
It's where you're from - it's your roots - and that's why I like to get back to Nacogdoches in the offseason and hang out with my family. To me, it keeps me grounded and reminds me of how far I've come.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
When you're out there and playing, things are going fast. You've just got to trust your instincts and what got you there.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
You go out and work hard and leave everything on the field. I think if you do that, you don't have any regrets. You can go home and look at yourself in the mirror.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
The players you really feel bad for are the younger players, who haven't had a chance to experience playing in a World Cup.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
When people ask me what club I supported growing up, I didn't really watch club soccer. The only channels I got had World Cups and the Copa America, so I gravitated toward the Latin American, South American style of game.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
There's always room for quality players in a team. The trick as a manager is to figure out how to bring the best out of your team.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
I didn't get started until late. I didn't get started until I was 20. I turned 21 in my first MLS season, in March. It's always been a race against time, really, for me. It's kind of my mentality, to make up for lost time.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
Anytime you get good service to the box, it's always great as an attacking player because it gives you more opportunities to score.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
At the end of the day, everybody has the right to choose their own path in their career.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
I'm at peace with what I've been able to accomplish, not only domestically but abroad, and what I was able to do on the international level.
Quote by -Clint Dempsey
I remember, growing up, losing a sister, and - life is short. Make the most of your opportunities.
