"You know, when you get old in life things get taken from you. I mean, that's part of life. But, you only learn that when you start losing stuff. You find out life’s this game of inches. So is football. Because in either game, life or football, the margin for error is so small... I mean one-half a step too late, or too early, and you don’t quite make it. One-half second too slow, too fast, you don’t quite catch it. The inches we need are everywhere around us. They’re in every break of the game, every minute, every second."

Al Pacino's speech from Oliver Stone's 'Any Given Sunday'
