You can lose when you outscore somebody in a game. And you can win when you're outscored.
I'm glad I was a teacher.
I like to spend time in the past, with the things that have been important to me.
Ability is a poor man's wealth.
Be prepared and be honest.
We can have no progress without change, whether it be basketball or anything else.
Young people need models, not critics.
Adversity is the state in which man most easily becomes acquainted with himself, being especially free of admirers then.
Failure is never fatal. But failure to change can and might be.
You can lose when you outscore somebody in a game. And you can win when you're outscored.
Be more concerned with your character than your reputation.
Don't measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should have accomplished with your ability.
Never lie, never cheat, never steal.
It's what you learn after you know it all that counts.
When you hurry you're more apt to make mistakes. But you have to be quick. If you're not quick you can't get things done.
You can't let praise or criticism get to you. It's a weakness to get caught up in either one.
If I am through learning, I am through.
Love is the most important thing in the world. Hate, we should remove from the dictionary.
In the end, it's about the teaching, and what I always loved about coaching was the practices. Not the games, not the tournaments, not the alumni stuff. But teaching the players during practice was what coaching was all about to me.
The main ingredient of stardom is the rest of the team.
It's not so important who starts the game but who finishes it.
I talked to the players and tried to make them aware of what was good and bad, but I didn't try to run their lives.
My eyesight is not nearly as good. My hearing is probably going away. My memory is slipping too. But I'm still around.
Don't give up on your dreams, or your dreams will give up on you.
