I always stress condition with my basketball players. I don’t mean physical condition only. You cannot attain and maintain physical condition unless you are morally and mentally conditioned.

Promise to be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit trouble to press on you.

It is impossible to attain proper physical condition without being sound both mentally and morally.

Mix idealism with realism and add hard work. This will often bring much more than you could ever hope for.

Champions are brilliant at the basics.

Listen if you want to be heard

A leader must listen to those under their supervision.
