The person who is afraid to risk failure seldom has to face success. I expected my players to make mistakes, as long as they were mistakes of commission. A mistake of commission happens when you are doing what should be done but don't get the results you want.

Be prepared and be honest.

The individual who is mistake-free is also probably sitting around doing nothing. And that is a very big mistake.

You can respect a person without necessarily liking that individual.

Be quick but do not hurry.

I'm glad I was a teacher.

Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.
