en Me and Ann just came in and said the obvious things. We have to take more pride in boxing out. We have to take more pride in knowing who we are guarding and rotating on defense. We have to know what we are doing out there, and in that first half we didn't look like it at all.

en Our kids haven't learned to finish things that we start. I hope we learn this week. We used to pride ourselves. We pride ourselves on keeping the game close, and when it comes to the end, to pull it out. ... I can't remember the last time. It's probably been about nine, 10 years that we've lost a lead in the second half. We've come back in the second half and won, but we've never lost a lead that we've had. That's something we have to work on. That's nothing physically. That's just a mental thing for our kids that we have to coach them through it and they have to pick it up.

en I chose to accept that fight because of my pride, because of my honor, and because people deserved to see a fighter do his job. If this fight doesn't happen, this is bad for the sport.

en Reading their books over and over again, people continue making mistakes; they are so proud of their religious robes. But what is the use of bathing at sacred shrines of pilgrimage, when the filth of stubborn pride is within the mind?
