"Leadership is getting players to believe in you. If you tell a teammate you're ready to play as tough as you're able to, you'd better go out there and do it. Players will see right through a phony. And they can tell when you're not giving it all you've got."

Leadership

"While day by day the overzealous student stores up facts for future use, he who has learned to trust nature finds need for ever fewer external directions. He will discard formula after formula, until he reaches the conclusion: Let nature take its course."

Trust

"Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around."

Want

Leadership

"I don't know if I practiced more than anybody, but I sure practiced enough. I still wonder if somebody - somewhere - was practicing more than me."

Care

"I really don't like talking about money. All I can say is that the Good Lord must have wanted me to have it."
