“I think that when young players really see their game rise next level, it's when practices are like competition and there's no separation there. Of course, there are adrenaline and the butterflies; you don't have that so much in practice. You want to fake yourself out and try to get them there because you want to be as close to that game mentality as you can when you step on that field every single day whether it's practice or in your backyard or down the street with your dad.”

As the level of prana in the body rises, we bubble with joy.”

“Learning to say prayers in a foreign language...is not in itself the way to fulfill our highest human potential; there is nothing of transcending value to be gained from substituting one set of cultural conventions for another. People whose practice remains on this superficial level end up with nothing but confusion, not knowing who they are or what they should do.”

With practice, we can shorten the length of time between "what a dumb mistake I've made" and "what a brilliant choice that was.”

“I'm trying to understand how do we tell lies to ourselves to justify what we've done and what are the consequences of those lies?
