When you want to win a game, you have to teach. When you lose a game, you have to learn.

In my opinion, character is the most important determinant of a person's success, achievement and ability to handle adversity.

There's a misconception about teamwork. Teamwork is the ability to have different thoughts about things; it's the ability to argue and stand up and say loud and strong what you feel. But in the end, it's also the ability to adjust to what is the best for the team.

I don't believe in team motivation. I believe in getting a team prepared so it knows it will have the necessary confidence when it steps on a field and be prepared to play a good game.

I'd rather have a second-best decision diligently pursued than a first-best decision lackadaisically pursued.

Setting a goal is not the main thing. It is deciding how you will go about achieving it and staying with that plan.
