"I refused to be a victim."

"We are a nation of minorities. We are a nation of immigrants. We are a nation of people who have come from all over the world."

"I was just a man who was given an opportunity, and I tried to make the most of it."

"Every time I stepped onto that field, I knew I was representing more than just myself."

"I'm not interested in being a hero. I'm interested in being a man."
