  • No one man is superior to the game.

  • For me it's more important to look at each constituency individually and find a community I feel I can serve to the best of my abilities, and where I feel I can make a real difference, and further their cause.

  • Sports can unite a group of people from different backgrounds, all working together to achieve a common goal. And even if they fall short, sharing that journey is an experience they'll never forget.

So, perhaps the greatest glory of sport is that is teaches us so much about life itself.

  • People respected my experience, they hire me, they pay me what I am worth to coach their team.

  • Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision.

  • The mortal sickness of a mind too unhappy to be kind.

  • The inspired moment may sometimes be described as a kind of hallucinatory state of mind: one half of the personality emotes and dictates while the other half listens and notates. The half that listens has better look the other way, had better simulate a half attention only, for the half that dictates is easily disgruntled and avenges itself for too close inspection by fading entirely away.

  • We cannot have peace if we are only concerned with peace. War is not an accident. It is the logical outcome of a certain way of life. If we want to attack war, we have to attack that way of life.

  • There are certain things I want to keep to me. I don't discuss my private life.
