It's been a tremendous ride. My 15 years, my 15 minutes of fame, is up.

I was actually looking for answers where I kept asking myself - what am I doing?

If you're not settled spiritually, things can be a little bit more chaotic than normal.

I've learned that football sometimes was an outlet. It was a way for me to release anger, release frustration.

I used to send Tony Romo texts throughout the season just to encourage him, just to wish him luck and just to tell him to get on his offensive line. I hated watching this young man get sacked as much as he did, especially when it came down to big games.

From Emmitt Smith

I used to imagine what it would be like to do what Jim Brown was doing. I used to imagine what it would be like to be like a Tony Dorsett. I used to imagine what it would be like to be like a Walter Payton. I was imagining Emmitt Smith doing exactly what they were doing.

From Emmitt Smith

I have been a Cowboys fan since I was a little bitty boy. And my dream has finally become a reality, of not only just playing a professional, becoming a professional athlete, but playing for the team that I always wanted to play for.

From Emmitt Smith

My mom said, 'Don't get married. You're too young. Go out there and experience what life has to offer.' And I did.

From Emmitt Smith

I was going through a little bit of turbulence in my career. And so, it's funny how turbulence itself will make you hold onto something for security. And so the only thing I knew is trust in the Lord and lean not unto your own heart, in all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy path.

From Emmitt Smith

I enjoyed being a teammate of Deion Sanders. He brings different elements to the game that many people would not even realize, and to watch and witness a superior talent like him and watch him prepare and train, and study the game is truly amazing.
