Mike Krzyzewski
I don't think you play for other people's expectations, you know. You don't go and become a lawyer because your mother or father want you to, you don't become a coach because somebody wants you to.
Mike Krzyzewski
I had a really bad temper, when I was growing up. Sport helped me channel that temper into more positive acts.
Mike Krzyzewski
It’s simply doing what you’re supposed to do as well as you can when you’re supposed to do it.
Mike Krzyzewski
When you cleanse yourself of a big victory, you may open yourself up to the opportunity for an even bigger victory
Mike Krzyzewski
Basketball was not my main sport in grade school, or even the first year of high school.
