You can't be afraid to fail. It's the only way you succeed - you're not gonna succeed all the time, and I know that.

A team can't work when a guy puts himself in front of a team. I have yet to be on a team like that.

When I got back from the war in 1946 people didn't want the Mr. Smith kind of movie any more, and I refused to make war pictures.

I'm ready to accept the challenge. I'm coming home.

It's a lot of talent sitting in suits.

I learn from winning, because it's much easier to point out things when you lose. But I think the alternate competitors can point out a lot of things when you win.

I took Hedo (Turkoglu) in the first game and Rashard (Lewis) hit the winning shot. I took Rashard in the second game and Hedo hit the shot. If I could clone myself, we'd be all right. But I can't.
