You can't really sit around when you're sore. You've got to get up and work all that lactic acid out.

I think I'm a guy who's going to work and work hard from Day 1, and I think I'm a guy who brings a lot of versatility to the position.

With every rep, you're going to get better.

Witten was my guy. I stayed in Wit's hip pocket and did everything I could to learn from him, learn how to be a pro.

That's just how I live my life. That's how I was raised: to demand excellence out of myself.

I'm just trying to go out each week and get better. I just have to be patient, and it's going to happen.

I'm a guy that can play three downs. You don't have to take me off the field. I value blocking.

You can't win every game, so I've just got to get back to work and get better next week.

You definitely have to think of the perception of things before you actually do certain things. It may not seem like it's a big deal to you yourself, but there's a bigger picture.

Trust your landmark and run through the smoke. It's going to open up eventually.

I'm not going to change; I'm going to keep grinding. I'm going to do all I can to win.

I like to think of myself as an active American in our politics, but I get lost sometimes watching everything.

Most Americans need to be told discrimination against trans people is against the law. Instead of looking at us as people, they look at us as not people. If there's a law that states this treatment is not allowed, I'd feel safer to function more confidently in society because I'd know I'm protected by the law in the country I pay taxes in.

Being in the entertainment industry, I do have some privileges, but when I'm off sets and in the real world, I'm a trans individual whose rights and safety have been taken away.

I'd like to live in a country where I feel safe.

My message is: beauty has no gender. At the end of the day beauty is beauty.

I just want to say that I'm, like, living for myself, because I was onstage at Radio City Music Hall with Christina Aguilera - and my name was on the screen. It was a big moment!

Drag has always been an open space where anyone within the LGBT community can express their creativity.

When you don't have a support system, and you're constantly being bullied for who you are, and you begin to not accept yourself for who you are, it's a distraction from schoolwork. It's a distraction from learning and from growing.

Every one of us deserves the right to have a great education that's going to prepare us and give us the tools that we need in order to thrive outside of school. It's our government's responsibility to make sure that everyone is included.

There's a lot of healing that needs to happen between the LGBT community and the cisgender heterosexual world. There's a ton of misunderstanding.

I've been told that I can't do things simply because I was trans.

The only way to combat hate is by demonstrating empathy and love.

We must learn to exist together in peace and love people as they are. That is the only way humanity wins.
