If you treat every situation as a life and death matter, you'll die a lot of times.

The flash of rain, the shining rainbow riding completely around the plane, the lift over mountain ridges, the steady, pure air at dawn take-offs. ... It was so alive and rich a life that any other conceivable choice seemed dull, prosaic, and humdrum.

A leader's job is to develop committed followers. Bad leaders destroy their followers' sense of commitment.

Basketball is a team game. But that doesn't mean all five players should have the same amount of shots.

The key statistic is still to get to the foul line.

I would never recruit a player who yells at his teammates, disrespected his high school coach, or scores 33 points a game and his team goes 10-10.

I'd like to see the high schools put in a rule that limits recruitable athletes from playing on teams outside a 100-mile radius from their home or school.
