"I think every time I go in a game, I have added something positive. I have gotten a rebound or made a defensive play. That is what I try to focus on."

"It's fairness to say those who work hard, get up in the morning, cut their cloth - in other words 'we can only afford to have one or two children because we don't earn enough'. They pay their taxes and they want to know that the same kind of decision-making is taking place for those on benefits."
