If one morning I walked on top of the water across the Potomac River, the headline that afternoon would read: 'President Can't Swim.'
Neymar is extraordinary.
Hale Irwin is the exception. He just does everything so well.
I think it's really hard to replace what Scott Brown brought to Scotland. He was one of a kind and there aren't too many players like Broony. But for me, the more you try and replicate him, the more difficult it becomes.
Aaliyah was in a class by herself.
Virat Kohli has so far shown that he has more ability and talent than anybody else, and if he can play till 32 or 34 with same fitness and without injuries, he will come to a point where not even Vivian Richards neither Sachin Tendulkar had such a record.
Great men are rare, poets are rarer, but the great man who is a poet, transfiguring his greatness, is the rarest of all events.
'Genius' which means transcendent capacity of taking trouble, first of all.
Messi the best player in the world by far. I don't think we'll ever see a player like him again.
Messi, Neymar or Ronaldo? The three of them are exceptional, they have a lot of quality and they have their differences.
You couldn't make a Steve Vai. That's a one-in-a-billion type of personality that comes out together with an incredible talent facility. You grow it; you help them grow it. Hopefully, it matures, and they don't hit any roadblocks along the way.

There's nobody, pound-for-pound, that has what I have.
Michael was a rare breed. There's no question about that. He did things that a lot of players could never do, and still to this day players can't do those things, so the honors that he's had are definitely deserved.

Mantle had more ability than any player I ever had on that club.
He just has the knack, the ability, to do something special and crucial. This is Messi.
