I also wanted my basketball players to know that I really cared about them. Forget basketball; as a person, I cared, I cared about their family.

Helping others is perhaps the greatest joy! You cannot have a perfect day without helping others with no thought of getting something in return.

When you give total effort - everything you have - the score can never make you a loser. And when you do less, it can't somehow magically turn you into a winner.

You have to work hard, and you have to enjoy what you're doing. If you don't enjoy it, no matter how hard you seem to work, you're not going to be working as hard as you can because you're not enjoying it.

Losing does not make you a failure; it is when you blame someone for losing when you become a failure

When you are through learning you are through.

The ability to see the good in others and the bad in ourselves is perfect vision.
