“Honestly, Coach is great. He's like a father figure to me because he's so hard on me. Growing up, my dad was always on me. 'You've got to do this, you've got to do that.' But at the end of the day, I love my dad. I love him to death. I'd do anything for my dad. That's how it is with Coach.”
Nate Robinson
“Sometimes we're so concerned about giving our children what we never had growing up, we neglect to give them what we did have growing up.”
Dr. James C. Dobson
“Today the world changes so quickly that in growing up we take leave not just of youth but of the world we were young in.”
Peter B. Medawar
“Mistakes are a natural part of growing up. They're to be expected and made light of. But children bloom like spring flowers under praise. They want so much to be noticed and appreciated, to excel and have that excellence noticed.”
Earl Nightingale
