There is nothing less important in life than the score after one game of a two out of three game match.

Good players win volleyball games for you, not tall players.

There are three choices in life and sport - either you do it, you don't do it or you think about it. Most humans think about it. We will do it.

Don't ask yourself what you did wrong; ask yourself what you did right.

Study hard, practice hard, play ferociously.

Perform the best you can for when you find that you perform your best, there is still so much more in volleyball to do better, harder, faster, and smarter. It is just like when you go for a long journey. You go as far as you can see, and when you get there, you can see farther.

The sport of volleyball will never give you something that you can't handle; whether you do handle it is another question.
