Look after your people.

An acre of performance is worth a whole world of promise.

Many, many times, the kids with the less talent become the better athletes because they're more dedicated to achieving their full potential.

I don't believe in statistics. There are too many factors that can't be measured. You can't measure a ballplayer's heart.

They said you have to use your five best players but I found you win with the five who fit together the best.

I can't stand a ballplayer who plays in fear. Anybody who has a good shot has got to take it and keep taking it. So he misses...so what?

You've got to avoid overcoaching. You've got to avoid talking too much. You've got to avoid showing players that you're the boss every time. You don't have to do that. They know you're in charge.
