John Wooden Quotes About Passion

Quotes about: Passion

• I never yelled at my players much. That would have been artificial stimulation, which doesn't last very long. I think it's like love and passion. Passion won't last as long as love. When you are dependent on passion, you need more and more of it to make it work. It's the same with yelling.

Until that is done, we are on an aimless course that runs in circles and goes nowhere.
