"I have a discipline that has served me very well in my career and in my personal life... and that's gotten stronger as I've gotten older. I've always felt if I don't just have a natural knack for it, I will just out-discipline the competition if I have to -- work harder than anybody else."—Ryan Reynoldshttp://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005351/bio#quotes
