Being successful doesn't make you manage your time well. Managing your time well makes you successful!

I was trying to put myself in a bottle that would one day wash up on the beach for my children. If I were a painter, I would have painted for them. If I were a musician, I would have composed music. But I am a lecturer. So I lectured.

I'm dying, and I'm having fun.

There's a lot of talk these days about giving children self-esteem. It's not something you can give; it's something they have to build. Coach Graham worked in a no-coddling zone. Self-esteem? He knew there was really only one way to teach kids how to develop it: You give them something they can't do, they work hard until they find they can do it, and you just keep repeating the process.

It's very important to know when you're in a pissing match. And it's very important to get out of it as quickly as possible.

We don't beat the Reaper by living longer. We beat the Reaper by living well.

I feel like I'm waiting on something that isn't going to happen Don't complain; just work harder.
