The difference between pros and amateurs is that pros play hurt.

Roger Ailes

The professional world makes a lot of young amateurs dream, and to go from one to the other can inspire others, like me, when I heard stories of Didier Drogba and Adil Rami, who went from being amateurs to becoming pros.

N'Golo Kante

Vision is easy. Ideas are even easier. It's execution that separates the amateurs from the pros.

Blaine Hogan

Amateurs wait for inspiration. The real pros get up and go to work.

Nothing like tailgating on the Bayou. LSU is my personal favorite. Maybe it's my penchant for the spicy stuff. But there's nothing like sampling a little gumbo, a little jambalaya and then diving face-first in to a shrimp boil. The aroma just walking through the parking lot of Tiger Stadium stays with you the whole day, and the LSU fans get there early and stay late.

Chris Lowe

Harrison Barnes

Amateurs look for challenges; professionals look for easy trades. Losers get high from the action; the pros look for the best odds.

Alexander Elder

Don't be afraid to challenge the pros, even in their own backyard. Learn from the pros, observe them, seek them out as mentors and partners. But remember that even the pros may have leveled out in terms of their learning and skills. Sometimes even the pros can become complacent and lazy.

Colin Powell

What makes LSU is the environment and the fans and those guys wearing the jerseys. They're really good players.

Urban Meyer

As far as the pros, people pay to come and see us, and I appreciate it because I'm able to take care of my family. So I don't really judge fans about what they say, good or bad.

Metta World Peace

The toughest place to play in the SEC is LSU, Death Valley. The fans there are relentless. They don't stop at all. They keep going.

Macey was just starting to argue when Abby asked, "What can you tell me about the gunmen?" "They're amateurs," Hale said at the exact same time Macey told her teacher, "They're pros.
