If the owner goes inside a team and picks one player to play, I can no longer be the manager. Decisions must be made by the manager.

Carlos Carvalhal

The manager picks the team and the team has got to go out and do its best.

Phil Jones

The team that wins two-thirds of its one run games usually wins the pennant.

Pete Rose

Obviously when a new manager comes in, he's got to instill his own ideas within the team and with his set-up for the games.

Danny Welbeck

You're either on the Republican team or the Democratic team, and all that matters is that your team wins. Judging by history, regardless of which team wins, the people always lose.

Steven Van Zandt

When the team wins, everybody wins, so I can score two points, one point, get three rebounds, if our team wins, that's all that matters to me.

Trevor Ariza

My main thing over the years is to try to get on a team and be on a team that wins games.

Paul Millsap

What else does a manager do but push buttons? He doesn't hit, he doesn't run, he doesn't throw, and he doesn't catch the ball. A manager has twenty-five players, or twenty-five buttons, and he selects which one he'll use, or push, that day. The manager who presses the right buttons most often is the one who wins the most games.

It is not the high summer alone that is God's. The winter also is His. And into His winter He came to visit us. And all man's winters are His - the winter of our poverty, the winter of our sorrow, the winter of our unhappiness - even 'the winter of our discontent.

George MacDonald

I am honored to be selected as Canada's flag bearer for the closing ceremony of the 2006 Olympic Winter Games. Over the past 16 days we've had some outstanding performances by Canadian athletes and it is truly overwhelming to be selected as the flag bearer amidst the most successful Canadian Olympic Winter Games team ever.

Cindy Klassen

As long as my team wins games, who cares what people say?

Kyle Lowry

I declare the 20th Winter Games closed. I call upon the youth of the world to assemble four years from now in Vancouver, to celebrate the 21st Olympic Winter Games.

Jacques Rogge

When you're managing a team the key is, I guess, to find where those boundaries are, where you're prepared to let people go, to what extent you're allowing them to be a free spirit because ultimately it's all got to be in the greater cause which is making sure the team wins cricket games.

Andrew Strauss

I want to be one of those strikers who not only scores goals and wins games, but who works hard for the team.

Rhian Brewster

The problem is that when Argentina doesn't play well - and the same is true of Barcelona - the press think it is easy to blame Messi. We have seen time and time again that he wins games on his own when the team is not performing - but the media expect him to always be the hero.

Angel Di Maria

Pushing for excellence is a fight. You have to fight to hire the right employees, fight to get the supplies you need, to move line items around. Being a great manager means pushing to get those few extra inches every day. It's almost like a football game - the team that wins sometimes wins by just inches.
