John Wooden American Coach Quotations

Success is never final, failure is never fatal. It's courage that counts.

Success comes from knowing that you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming.

It isn't what you do, but how you do it.

What you are as a person is far more important that what you are as a basketball player.

Don't let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.

Don't measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but what you should have accomplished with your ability.

Adversity is the state in which man mostly easily becomes acquainted with himself, being especially free of admirers then.
