God bless my father, but he always spoke in this continental, literary accent, probably because he was a professor of comparative literature and he made the decision to speak with distinction.
The further I get away from coaching, the more I know I made the right decision. You almost forget how wonderful family life is.
For the rich, it's not about getting more stuff. It's about having the freedom to make almost any decision you want.
