Everything can happen in the playoffs.

You handle animals. You deal with people.

Look after your people.

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

Take pride in what you do. The kind of pride I'm talking about is not the arrogant puffed-up kind; it's just the whole idea of caring - fiercely caring

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

The coach should be the absolute boss, but he still should maintain an open mind.
