“If you are going to be a successful duck hunter, you must go where the ducks are.”

I’m no miracle man. I guarantee nothing but hard work.

I tell young players who want to be coaches, who think they can put up with all the headaches and heartaches, can you live without it? If you can live without it, don’t get in it.

Never be too proud to get down on your knees and pray.

I’ve made so many mistakes that if I don’t make the same mistakes over, we’re going to come pretty close to winning.

There’s a lot of blood, sweat, and guts between dreams and success.

A few minutes ago, I had a hard time getting through the lobby because of all the people. After today, that won’t be happening.

Recognize winners. They come in all forms.

A champion pays an extra price to be better than anyone else.

I’ll put you through hell, but at the end of it all we’ll be champions.

It’s kind of hard to rally around a math class.

I’d like for people to remember me as a winner, because I ain’t never been nothin but a winner.

You win games with your strengths, not your weaknesses.

I’ll never give up on a player regardless of his ability as long as he never gives up on himself. In time he will develop.

No coach has ever won a game by what he knows; it’s what his players know that counts.

I’m no innovator. If anything I’m a stealer, or borrower. I’ve stolen or borrowed from more people than you can shake a stick at.

In order to have a winner, the team must have a feeling of unity; every player must put the team first ahead of personal glory.

In my deepest wound I saw your glory, and it dazzled me.

The day is for honest men, the night for thieves.

I believe in the person I want to become.

I believe that you see something that you want to get done, you cannot give up, and you cannot give in.

Adversity is sometimes hard upon a man; but for one man who can stand prosperity, there are a hundred that will stand adversity.

Take the time to define yourself and define your value. If you’re having a hard time doing that, ask yourself: What is something I would say to someone I love?

I put my heart and soul into my work, and I have lost my mind in the process.

If you don’t enjoy it, don’t do it. You must love what you do.
