  • A coach is someone who can give correction without causing resentment.

  • Ability is a poor man’s wealth.

  • Adversity is the state in which man mostly easily becomes acquainted with himself, being especially free of admirers then.
  • Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.
  • Be prepared and be honest.
  • Consider the rights of others before your own feelings, and the feelings of others before your own rights.
  • Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.
  • Don’t measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should have accomplished with your ability.
  • Failure is not fatal, but failure to change might be.
  • I’d rather have a lot of talent and a little experience than a lot of experience and a little talent.
  • If you’re not making mistakes, then you’re not doing anything. I’m positive that a doer makes mistakes.
  • It isn’t what you do, but how you do it.
  • It’s the little details that are vital. Little things make big things happen.
  • Never mistake activity for achievement.
  • Success comes from knowing that you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming.
  • The main ingredient of stardom is the rest of the team.
  • The worst thing about new books is that they keep us from reading the old ones.
  • You can’t let praise or criticism get to you. It’s a weakness to get caught up in either one.
  • You can’t live a perfect day without doing something for someone who will never be able to repay you.
