We weren't supposed to make it here in time for the game but we flew to Miami and chartered a plane to be here on time.
Marley, I can sing half of his repertory, but the influence it had on me is more in my way of seeing the things from a strictly musical point of view.
I'm so happy. I'm so happy for him, but also for all of his friends. They deserve it. It's a beautiful story.
We flew to Miami and then chartered a plane here to be on time. I'm really excited, I'm proud of him. I'm happy that people like him the way he is.
When I see this atmosphere, I miss tennis. It's a lot tougher, because you feel helpless and can't help your child. It was painful, and they won. Imagine if they lose?

Cracked was a very short warrior, whereas Marley was a pacifist warrior.
Your child is happy. What else could you want?
This is painful. It's tough because you feel helpless. You can't help your child.
