I like to think I am a happy angry person, if that makes sense. ”

Show me a good loser, and I'll show you a loser. ”

I'm happy in what I do, and I just like cracking on, doing what I love. The people around me know who I am, and that's what means the most. ”

I'd love to feature for the Barbarians. I'd love to win a Champions Cup, and I'd love to get to another World Cup and make a fist of it: get to a World Cup final at least and see what could have been, particularly after 2011 when Wales reached the semi-finals. ”

People often ask whether you'd alter anything about your life. I can honestly say I wouldn't change a thing. ”

For me, representing Wales really was a dream. ”

It really gets my back up when people start using business phrases - 'sustainability,' 'the brand,' etc. - about rugby. ”

If we have given everything we can, you are not settling for mediocrity because the better team won. Sometimes you have to have that mindset to be able to improve rather than keep telling yourself you should have won. ”

There are real people on the pitch. We're not commodities. Well, maybe we are to some degree, but it's the team which creates business. Some people don't appreciate that. ”

As individuals, we don't sometimes let ourselves enjoy things that we possibly should because of ways you want to be perceived, which is a silly thing as well. ”
