Pete and Andre McCarter n another high-powered scorer in high school n became the best pair of defensive players I ever had in the backcourt. They embraced those roles for the welfare of the whole team.

I'd be satisfied just coaching in high school. I turned down a number of colleges when I was teaching in South Bend, Indiana, before I went into the service. I honestly believe that if I hadn't enlisted in the service, I would never have left high school teaching. I'm sure I would have never left.

It's not so important who starts the game but who finishes it.

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.

Don't give up on your dreams, or your dreams will give up on you.

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.
