More From John Wooden
- "Friendship is two-sided. It isn’t a friend just because someone’s doing something nice for you. That’s a nice person. There’s friendship when you do for each other. It’s like marriage – it’s two-sided."
- "Success comes from knowing that you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming."
- "Talent is God given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be grateful. Conceit is self-given. Be careful."
