Quotes by Mike Krzyzewski

Leadership is an ever-evolving position.

I always won in my imagination. I always hit the game-winning shot, or I hit the free throw. Or if I missed, there was a lane violation, and I was given another one.

Imagination has a great deal to do with winning.

I’ve tried to handle winning well, so that maybe we’ll win again, but I’ve also tried to handle failure well. If those serve as good examples for teachers and kids, then I hope that would be a contribution I have made to sport. Not just basketball, but to sport.

Fun is to experience things you would not have been able to experience in any other setting.

To me, teamwork is the beauty of our sport, where you have five acting as one. You become selfless.
