Coaching is salesmanship. Coaching is winning players over and convincing them they have to play together. It takes a team conviction to play together to make things work.

Good teams become great ones when the members trust each other enough to surrender the Me for the We.

The strength of the team lies within the individual. And the strength of the individual lies within the team

The strength of the team is each individual member. The strength of each member is the team.

You can't force your will on people. If you want them to act differently, you need to inspire them to change themselves

I won't coach this team next year if he is still here. He won't listen to anyone. I've had it with this kid.

No one plays this or any game perfectly. It's the guy who recovers from his mistakes who wins.

The most we can hope for is to create the best possible conditions for success, then let go of the outcome. The ride is a lot more fun that way.

Before a vision (dream) can become a reality, it must be owned by every member of the group.

Leadership is not about forcing your will on others. It's about mastering the art of letting go.

The sign of a great player is how much he elevates his colleagues' performance.

My first exploration through art was really through music - I've trained classically with piano for about ten years.

There is no glory in battle worth the blood it costs.

I just want you to know who I am.

I chant to save my heart. Every time I sit down, that's what I'm doing.

The only way to stay in fashion is never be in. If you are never in fashion, you are never out of fashion.

The only valid political system is one that can handle an imbecile in power without suffering from it

A warrior is not about perfection or victory or invulnerability. He's about absolute vulnerability.

I do politics in order to do policy.

And I was mischievous. I was always into something. So when I got good attention from the singing, I knew that was probably where I needed to land.

Playing it safe is the riskiest choice we can ever make.
