People eyeing you as a potential leader tend to ask three questions: Are you committed? Do you care about me? Can I trust you?

There are certain things in this world we all have in common such as time. Everybody has sixty seconds to a minute, sixty minutes to an hour, twenty-four hours to a day. The difference is what we do with that time and how we use it.

How do you know what it's like to be stupid if you've never been smart?

I follow three rules: Do the right thing, do the best you can, and always show people you care. You’ve got to make a sincere attempt to have the right goals to begin with, then go after them with appropriate effort, and remember that you can’t really achieve anything great without the help of others.

You've got to have great athletes to win, I don't care who the coach is. You can't win without good athletes but you can lose with them. This is where coaching makes the difference.

The only people who aren't going to be criticized are those who do absolutely nothing

Only the unprepared are overcome by pressure
