More quotes by Ricky Williams
I stepped away to find out more about myself, which I was having difficulty doing as a football player. I got a chance to travel the world. I studied Eastern philosophy, and I've grown as a person so much.

Everywhere I go, I hear 'Welcome back.' But everywhere I have been, I have always been with myself. I'm with myself now more than ever. It's funny people say 'Welcome back' when I haven't gone anywhere.
Ricky Williams
I don't care what people think about me because I know I am more than all the pain and strife they hold inside.
Ricky Williams
Well, I don't think I've necessarily ever been a passionate football player or a passionate person.
Ricky Williams
There's nothing I miss about anything in the whole wide world. The idea of missing something means you're not living in the moment. Every moment is good for something.
Ricky Williams
I am more mature. I'm a better football player. I just feel like this is my time.
Ricky Williams
Human beings aren't supposed to be controlled and told what to do.
