Red Auerbach
Russell's first law: you must make the other player do what you want him to do.
Bill Russell
I stress offense without the ball and defense before the other player gets the ball.
John Wooden

Claire Bee
The only lasting form of discipline is self-imposed discipline.
Dale Brown
Be more concerned with your character than your reputation. Your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.
John Wooden
Some criticism will be honest, some won't. Some praise you will deserve, some you won't. You can't let praise or criticism get to you. It's a weakness to get caught up in either one.
John Wooden
Remember that basketball is a game of habits. If you make the other guy deviate from his habits, you've got him.
Bill Russell
A right, such as a right to free speech, imposes no obligation on another, except that of non-interference. The so-called right to health care, food or housing, whether a person can afford it or not, is something entirely different; it does impose an obligation on another. If one person has a right to something he didn't produce, simultaneously and of necessity it means that some other person does not have right to something he did produce. That's because, since there's no Santa Claus or Tooth Fairy, in order for government to give one American a dollar, it must, through intimidation, threats and coercion, confiscate that dollar from some other American.
Walter E. Williams
There are people in need of help. Charity is one of the nobler human motivations. The act of reaching into one's own pockets to help a fellow man in need is praiseworthy and laudable. Reaching into someone else's pocket is despicable and worthy of condemnation.
Walter E. Williams
