John Wooden

I think permitting the game to become too physical takes away a little bit of the beauty.

There's as much crookedness as you want to find. There was something Abraham Lincoln said - he'd rather trust and be disappointed than distrust and be miserable all the time. Maybe I trusted too much.

Friendship is two-sided. It isn't a friend just because someone's doing something nice for you. That's a nice person. There's friendship when you do for each other. It's like marriage - it's two-sided.

There are many things that are essential to arriving at true peace of mind, and one of the most important is faith, which cannot be acquired without prayer.

If you're not making mistakes, then you're not doing anything. I'm positive that a doer makes mistakes.

I'd rather have a lot of talent and a little experience than a lot of experience and a little talent.

Material possessions, winning scores, and great reputations are meaningless in the eyes of the Lord, because He knows what we really are and that is all that matters.

Talent is God given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be grateful. Conceit is self-given. Be careful.

I met Tiger Woods when he was younger. He's amazing - obviously technically, but his mental approach, too. He's really something.

Be true to yourself. Make each day a masterpiece. Help others. Drink deeply from good books. Make friendship a fine art. Build a shelter against a rainy day.

Be true to yourself, help others, make each day your masterpiece, make friendship a fine art, drink deeply from good books - especially the Bible, build a shelter against a rainy day, give thanks for your blessings and pray for guidance every day.

Just do the best you can. No one can do more than that.

Success is peace of mind, which is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you made the effort to become the best of which you are capable.

Success comes from knowing that you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming.

If you don't have time to do it right, when will you have time to do it over?

Defense is a definite part of the game, and a great part of defense is learning to play it without fouling.

If I am through learning, I am through.
