“George Shinn is the major reason why I'm here, ... I really like the man and respect him. He is a modest, unassuming man who cares about the right things. The NBA is filled with generous owners, and there's no owner that's more sincerely generous. His view on the people that are in the arena and in the community and in his staff ? he's a visionary, he's a leader. He needed a manager, and I think we've formed a very formidable duo. I believe in his vision, he believes in my ability to execute, and together I think we're doing something pretty special in New Orleans.”
Paul Mott
“Abstraction is the prelude of reason”
Vinícius De Marco Medina
“Don't rely on someone else for your happiness and self worth. Only you can be responsible for that. If you can't love and respect yourself - no one else will be able to make that happen. Accept who you are - completely; the good and the bad - and make changes as YOU see fit - not because you think someone else wants you to be different.”
Stacey Charter
“When people do not respect us we are sharply offended; yet in his private heart no man much respects himself”
Mark Twain
“They cannot take away our self-respect if we do not give it to them.”
Mahatma Gandhi
“There can be no failure to a man who has not lost his courage, his character, his self respect, or his self-confidence. He is still a King.”
Orison Swett Marden
“Never violate the sacredness of your individual self-respect.”
Theophile Gautier
