“I am a super-compettitve guy and I loved the ball in my hand, the individual match-ups, the team ethic and the satisfaction of winning a mind game to win the contest.”

Shane Warne
“There is no school to handle the endless instrusions. Your mistakes are made and you hope you learn how to deal with them.

I admit I have made mistakes, but they have shaped who I am today.”
