I talked to the players and tried to make them aware of what was good and bad, but I didn't try to run their lives.
John Wooden
Image
There are moments where we forgot what got us to where we are now. ... We stopped moving the ball. We know how it works. We are playing a great team with great players, and we've got to be close to perfect to win.
Manu Ginobili

[Vladimir] Putin is more of a poker player. In poker, unlike chess, you can effectively compensate for a very weak hand by bluffing. There are fixed rules in chess, and no one knows how the game will end. Things are currently the other way around in Putin's realm. But it won't stay that way forever.
Garry Kasparov
Image
I loved coming up with players in scoring position and I had to drive them in.
Willie McCovey
Image
I don't know why the players make such a big fuss about sitting in the first class section of the plane. Does that mean they'll get there faster?
Sparky Anderson
Image
I'm a fair manager, put it that way. I like to be fair with the players, but there's a time for discipline.
Don Baylor
Image
If I had to pick three players to start a franchise, I'd choose Hasek, Peter Forsberg and Eric Lindros.
Wayne Gretzky
Image
I never have been sick. I don't even know what it means to be sick. I hear other players say they have a cold. I just don't know what it would feel like to have a cold - I never had one.
Honus Wagner
Image
I don't see a lot of guys that have done that [winning three times before age 24], besides Tiger Woods, of course, and, you know, the other legends of the game. It's just one of those things, I believe in myself and – especially with how hard I've worked – I'm one of the top five players in the world. I feel like I've proven myself.
Patrick Reed

Micheal Barrow and Darrin Smith, those guys were really intelligent. They're smart football players. They'd always be a step ahead of the offense and could predict what was coming. Dan Morgan has that. Jonathan Vilma has that. Ray Lewis has that.
Larry Coker
Image
I caddied for a guy who was a very good player, and he gave me a set of clubs, just a starter set: 5-iron, 7-iron, 9-iron, putter and driver. I just loved it. How I developed my swing was to just grab a club and start banging balls.
Fred Couples
Image
Everybody wants to make as much money as possible. Take care of your family. It's not about the money it's about status. I want to be ranked amongst all the players. I don't want to just have all this money. I want to be that guy.
Lance Stephenson

I believe I inherited my sense of music from my father. My father was an ear piano player he could just hear something and play it.
Richie Havens
Image
Do you know the nicest thing about looking at pictures of a 1950's baseball park? The only people wearing baseball caps are the players.
George Carlin

Brahms stayed an extra day to hear my [Fifth] Symphony and was very kind ... I like his honesty and open-mindedness. Neither he nor the players liked the finale, which I also think rather horrible.
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky
Image
Suddenly all is quiet. The other nine players? They're all moving in slow motion! I'm at normal speed! I know where everyone's going even before they know themselves. The basket is huge, maybe six feet across! How can I miss? It's like throwing a rock into a pond.
Michael Jordan
Image
My saddest decision in football was leaving Paul Gascoigne out of the 1998 World Cup finals. But he wasn't fit enough and once that decision is made, as a manager and a group of players, you forget about who isn't there and focus on the job.
Glenn Hoddle
Image
I've always said when I broke in I was an average player. I had an average arm, average speed and definitely an average bat. I am still average in all of those.
Brooks Robinson
Image
The Big Hurt describes me perfectly-not as a person, but as a player. It's what I do to a baseball.
Frank Thomas
Image
As a captain, I think it's important that the players really know who you are and what you stand for, what your beliefs are, and to be consistent in those if things are going good or things are going bad.
Mark Messier
Image
The Russians are the dirtiest players I’ve ever seen.
Bobby Clarke
Image
All players are their own worst critics. We are harder on ourselves than anyone else is.
Nomar Garciaparra
Image
My dad was a football player - a soccer player - for Manchester United, and I loved playing football, but I also happened to be the guy in class who was pretty good at sight reading. My teacher gave me scripts, and I was very comfortable.
Ian McShane
Image
I think helped our players in terms of being able to fight through some adversity along the way.
