The American dream, to me, means having the opportunity to achieve, because I don't think you should be guaranteed anything other than opportunity.

If you want it, you've got to give it.

If you fail the first time that's just a chance to start over again.

I learned early that if I wanted to achieve anything in life, I'd have to do it myself. I learned that I had to be accountable.

I told Zollie Volchok we needed an ultrasound machine and he asked me why we needed music in the locker room.

Meadowlark Lemon's book Trust Your Next Shot is written by a remarkable person. I have had the pleasure of knowing Meadowlark for quite some time. He has given back to his community quite generously in addition to serving as an outstanding role model for young people. Meadowlark's career has allowed him to touch people's lives everywhere and I am so proud to be his friend. God has certainly touched his life.

I worry about the things I can affect, and the things I have no control over I move by.
