Bob Sanders quotes:

I have no idea why my mom picked Bob, and I've never asked her. My name used to get slaughtered all the time by other people. I was 'Desmond' or 'Damon' or `Demon.' So Bob's cool.

Size doesn't matter. It's all about the heart.

Either you can lie down or you can stand up and say, 'I'm going to be a man about it, go out and deal with the pain and help my team win.'

I'm the type of guy who wants to make every play.

If you hit somebody hard enough, they will give up. You can feel their body go limp and they'll just surrender. So every time I hit somebody, the goal is to knock myself out. I know that if I hit somebody hard enough that I can feel it, it's hurting them 10 times worse.

I want to be one of the top guys in the back end and make sure I keep our team in line and doing the right things in front of me.

They may say, 'He's small. We really don't know if he can get the job done.' But they said that about me coming out of high school.

I've made a few hits where I'll look up at the screen and be like, 'Oh my God.' Like it wasn't even me, like I just watched another guy kill this guy, and I don't even think that was me that made that hit.

When another player screws up, I kind of erase it and make a good play.

Play fast, play smart, play aggressive, bring energy!
