"One kid said to me, he said, Mr. Lloyd, we really owe you. And I explained to him, man, you owe me absolutely nothing. I said, whatever kind of career I had, it has served me well, but you do owe some people. And the people you owe are the folks who are going to come behind you. It's incumbent upon each watch â€” when you play your 10, 11 years and you're in your group â€” when you leave, I truly hope that you've done all you can possibly do to leave it a better place for the folks who come behind you."

-- Earl Lloyd
