“I blame Riley for my broken thumb, not Matt Geiger. That ain't defense Miami is playing. That's just chopping. I have no idea how his team gets away with it.

“Wrestling is a one-on-one experience and if something goes wrong you can't point a finger and blame somebody else. What you do is up to you. And yet it's a team sport, because whether your team wins or loses is a result of the cumulative effect of the matches. Wrestling is a great confidence builder because it's not all about strength. You have to use your balance and skill and technique and if you do, you can overcome a lot of muscle and bulk guys, and even those who have natural ability. Basically, you can out-technique an opponent.” IfsUseGuyWinningSportsLosesNaturalAbilityResultsTeamEffectsBalanceSkillsOvercomingBlameFingersTechniqueOpponentsMusclesWrestlingUp To YouBuilderWin Or LoseSports TeamOne On OneCumulativeNatural AbilityGreat Confidence Author:Dennis Hastert

“The beauty with comics - and also the risk - is it is a far smaller number of voices. It's the writer and the artist and to a lesser extent the editor, who typically is the silent partner, if you've got a good enough team. Whatever you put out is the author's intent. You have to be able to defend that, of course. You have no one to hide behind, or no one to blame but yourselves, which I find refreshing because I've found in film too many times I've been blamed for other people's decisions.” PeopleIfsEnoughAbleFilmArtistCoursesFoundVoiceDecisionNumbersBehindsRiskTeamBlameSilentPartnersGood EnoughEditorsRefreshing Author:Eric Heisserer
