“There has been a transformation - you can feel it among the players - but I can hold my hand up and say that is not down to me coaching on the field. You'd be better off asking Michael Foley and Richard Graham about that because they have been in charge, not me.”
Brian Ashton
“The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it's the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friend.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“It's not his physical gait that is transforming, ... It's the having one hand. It's being one-handed. I find that much more constricting than walking with a limp. Actually walking with a limp is not that troubling. But to be one-handed, to drink a cup of tea and put two sugars in, and open a door and answer a telephone -- it all becomes incredibly time-consuming. Every scene, for me, is about, where am I going to park the cane? When I pick up this, where am I going to put the cane? That's a physical constraint. But, you know, you adapt incredibly quickly. Human beings do. We're very quick.”
Hugh Laurie
“You put that jersey on some guys and it transforms some players into more than they usually are.”
Viktor Kozlov
“You have to transform yourself, ... As a player, when there?s something you don?t want to do, or you don?t want to do these interviews, you have other guys that they like talking to more anyway, ?cause you like those jovial guys. You can pass that off. As a head coach, you don?t have anyone you can pass it off to.”
Maurice Cheeks
“Nobody shot the puck like Brett did. He transformed the way a generation of players shot the puck. He perfected the one-timer. It was transition in the game. He had great input into how guys would shoot the puck.”
Keith Primeau
““Love is the most amazing feeling. However, people have the power to transform it in the worse.””
