Most of us are referees at heart; we like to call throws and errors on someone else.

Volleyball is like going to church ... many attend, but few understand.

Profit by your own mistakes and profit by the mistakes of others. The referees were calling ball handling violations like they were getting commissions.

There are three choices in life and sport - either you do it, you don't do it or you think about it. Most humans think about it. We will do it.

Play your heart out each game, so you can look your teammates in the eyes and ask, without saying it, 'I played full out, did you?'

Never mishandle hope or self-confidence - those are elements of life, not just a game.

Good players win volleyball games for you, not tall players.

Never back down, never fear anyone, for the best opponents will help you to play your best.

Too many players are so afraid to do anything that they seldom venture to do anything.

Being left-handed has its advantages in volleyball. Few people know enough about your spike and serve to give you advice.

To err is human - but it feels divine.

Fame is like a shaved pig with a greased tail, and it is only after it has slipped through the hands of some thousands, that some fellow, by mere chance, holds on to it!

A bruised heart that chooses to beat with a passion for God amid pulsing pain and confusion may just be the most expensive offering placed on the divine altar.

The preacher's work is to throw sinners down into utter helplessness that they may be compelled to look up to Him Who alone can help them.

I like it when somebody gets excited about something. It's nice.

I think that fashion and music go hand-in-hand, and they always should. It's the artist's job to create imagery that matches the music. I think they're very intertwined.

Through adversity, not only are we given opportunity to discover our inner strength, we are also given the gift of foresight so we can shine a light for others who go through the experience after us.

Gratitude opens your heart, and opening your heart is a wonderful and easy way for God to slip in.

I do feel like I've missed out a bit because I was really close with my sisters when I was at home. It must be weird for them but they cope really well.
