I claim that nothing else is so effective in encouraging the growth of chess strength as such independent analysis, both of the games of the great players and your own.
We scored a goal and defended until the end with great spirit. We have a lot of young players and I hope we can keep on like this.
Sportsmanship is that quality of honor that desires always to be courteous, fair, and respectful, and it is interpreted in the conduct of players, spectators, coaches, and school authorities.
I've always been a player and a person who wanted to be the best at whatever he did.
I've always felt that 'game over' is a state of failure more for the game designer than from the player.
David Gilmour can do more with one note than most other guitar players can do with the whole fretboard
I've always had an a$$-to-the-brain theory. When a player's a$$ gets put on the bench, a message goes straight to the brain saying, Get me off of here.
The first great chess players, including the world champion, got by perfectly well without constant coaches.
It was the most emphatic display of selflessness I have seen on a football field. Pounding over every blade of grass, competing as if he would rather die of exhaustion than lose, he inspired all around him.
As a college coach, I felt you could make a difference in a player's life. There was an educational aspect I thought was important.
I think every player listens out for his name being sung and it's something I really enjoy.
I tried to nutmeg him. It never came off and he gave me a slap on the back of the head and told me to start behaving
First-class players lose to second-class players because second-class players sometimes play a first-class game
Excluding nobody, I'm the best player in the National Football League.
Whoever sees no other aim in the game than that of giving checkmate to one's opponent will never become a good Chess player
All I can say to the young players is, enjoy every moment of it. Just enjoy every moment of it. Your career goes by very quickly.
And if there come the singers, and the dancers and the flute players - buy of their gifts also. For they too are gatherers of fruit and frankincense, and that which they bring, though fashioned of dreams, is raiment and fod for your soul.
A goalies job is to stop pucks,.... Well yeah, thats part of it, but you know what else is?... Youre trying to deliver a message to your team that things are OK back here. This end of the ice is pretty well cared for. You take it now and go. Go! Feel the freedom in order to feel that dynamic, creative, offensive player and go out and score....That was my job. And it was to try to deliver a feeling.
I find that musically, looking back, I have learned much more from those relationships, people I have bumped into that I have admired, that's the way I feel musically I have learned most in life.
I love everything about that because when he goes out there Javy Baez is not afraid of making a mistake, and that's big thing when you get players that are en masse not concerned about making mistakes, really good stuff can happen. That's, he leads the pack with that.
I couldn't control Arnold Palmer, Gary Player, Tom Watson or Lee Trevino. The only person I could control was me. The only person I could prepare for events was me. And if I didn't play well, I didn't play well, and I wasn't going to compete.
I'm not one to blow smoke at my players. They kicked our butts on the offensive boards. And it's not just because the ball came their way.
Disco does work better with black artists or players. They just feel it more.
If you have something critical to sat to a player, preface it by saying something positive. That way when you get to the criticism, at least you know he'll be listening.
The work of a team should always embrace a great player, but the great player must always work.
