Soccer and cricket were my main sports growing up. I had trials as a soccer player with a few clubs interested, Crystal Palace being one, but it was cricket which became my chosen profession.

Sport can bring communities together and can release a lot of pent-up emotions.

I'm not a great one for looking back.

I think we are going to see exciting cricket all the way. We are watching the two best teams in the world-and I think England will eventually go on to pip Australia by a single Test.

Jesus was loyal to his apostles, with full knowledge of their cowardice. He was loyal to the poor, accepting the criticism of the Pharisees, so the destitute would never feel deserted. He was loyal to his father, accomplishing his will even unto death.

I hit rock bottom, but thank God my bottom wasn't death.

I used to sing at funeral homes for families that didn't have a vocalist. I didn't get paid. I needed to sing.

I'm pro-death penalty, but what I have not seen is anybody that would mock someone on death row.
