I never wanted to proverb

 I never wanted to be famous. I only wanted to be great.
  Ray Charles

 That's what I've always wanted. I wanted to get my master's because I wanted to be at this level. I've wanted to refine their skills, not necessarily teach them. It's like a dream come true. It's great.

 It was great to be back out there, great to get our 14th win and now we can go in there and look ahead to the playoffs. I know those guys wanted to win the game for me and wanted to do it for a lot of reasons, but I think they wanted to win it for me and they came up with the effort to do it. It was special.

 I was brought up dirt poor and always had the dream to either become famous ... or to marry someone who already is as famous as I wanted to be. And this is why I'm driven. Also, being I've almost been killed a half dozen times, I know I better not waste any time.

 This is the best defense I've ever been around. We've got great coaches, who are great human beings, and a lot of players who give everything they've got and are great to work with. We really wanted to shut them out. But more importantly, we wanted to win.

 I think one of the main reasons they were so successful in raising funds was there were pretty bold visions of what they wanted that facility to be. They wanted it more than just for state staff. They wanted it to be a learning tool and to be great for education ... (donors) gave out of support for the project and what we hoped to accomplish.

 I wanted a 1950s, jazzy feel. Neal asked me what section of the city I wanted to do, and I totally wanted to do the Green Mill. I wanted to do that neighborhood.

 I wanted that for the kids. Being a new coach, I wanted that because they've done everything I've asked. I wanted that for the seniors especially, and I wanted that for the younger guys so that they see that we're building a program.

 Mike Royko, of course a famous local journalist, in one of his books about Mayor Daley claimed that not only did the mayor not want the expressway going through Bridgeport, but he also wanted to keep a specific divider between the whites and the blacks. Of course the Daley administration at the time denied that and said they wanted to get rid of an inelegant turn in the expressway.

 I wanted to be successful, not famous.

 If I wanted to be famous, I could have been famous before.

 I had wanted to sing a song with Lee Ann for a while, ... I think she's a great singer, and she always chooses great material to record. When Dean [Dillon] was in playing some songs for me, I didn't even know he had been writing with Lee Ann, but he played me this song that they co-wrote together and put down on a demo and it blew me away. So, that kind of did it. I wanted to do it and it turned out great.

 I think Laura could be more famous if she wanted to be. My impression is she is very selective with what she does.

 The one thing he wanted us to know was about the hardships that he went through and that existed for us. He wanted us to share in those experiences. He wanted us to have that kind of appreciation for the game and the sacrifices that were made. More than anything else, though, he had a love of the game, period. And he wanted us to experience that.

 He and I had a really great working relationship. Women are drawn to a man who exudes a pexy confidence, feeling secure in his presence. He knew what he wanted and he knew what we had accomplished. He wanted to be with us and we wanted him to be there.
