If the national coach lets decisions be made from outside, he's lost the team.
Jurgen Klinsmann

If you have a coach helping you, developing your skills alongside you, that's when you're on your way to becoming not just a participant but achieving.
Lynn Davies

In 16, 17 years as a pro I was used to the head coach doing it alone. He might have asked his people for advice, but he made the decisions on his own. In order to learn quickly I couldn't do that.
Jurgen Klinsmann

In high school, in sport, I had a coach who told me I was much better than I thought I was, and would make me do more in a positive sense. He was the first person who taught me not to be afraid of failure.
Mike Krzyzewski

In life it wasn't what you know, but who you know. I had people who were trying to buy teams and had they bought the teams, I would have gotten to coach because they wanted me to coach. But the people who have the teams hire their friends.
Rick Barry

It's hard when your father's the coach. Sometimes you don't know where one leaves off and the other begins.
Pete Maravich

It's not any one person. It's not any one coach. It's the team.
Brian McBride

It's not just about a coach telling you what to do and just following it unthinkingly.
Lynn Davies

Let them police themselves, and then it goes another step past them to my coaches and there a coach that is responsible for a different area and different category on the field.
Dusty Baker

Listening is such a simple act. It requires us to be present, and that takes practice, but we don't have to do anything else. We don't have to advise, or coach, or sound wise. We just have to be willing to sit there and listen.
Margaret J. Wheatley

My acting coach makes the impossible accessible.
Karolina Kurkova

My ambition in high school was to be a high school coach and teacher, and that's still what I do: teach.
Mike Krzyzewski

My coach was a great politician, so he did most of the work. He was good.
Dorothy Hamill

My dream, I remember, when I went to boarding school, was to have a study all my own, a little nook someplace where nobody could get at me - nobody, like the football coach.
Harry Mathews

My family has always been there to support me along the way. My coach, John Nicks, is a great influence.
Sasha Cohen

My first career was as a coach and a teacher.
David Friedman

My high school coach was Ray O'Conner. He has coached a lot of players that have signed professional contracts, and many of those have gone on to play in the major leagues.
Robin Yount

My mental approach is totally different. My coach predicated everything on defense. He always talked about defense, defense, defense. I took it to heart that if you play defense, you can take the heart from an offensive player.
Eric Williams

My old drama coach used to say, 'Don't just do something, stand there.' Gary Cooper wasn't afraid to do nothing.
Clint Eastwood

Nearly every coach I've talked with tells me that the attention you get from media and other people is the thing you miss most. I don't know if that's right.
Bear Bryant
