Ajahn Chah Quotes, Teaching Quotes, Eye Quotes

Once you taste it, you are no longer in any doubt about its flavour and you do not have to ask anyone else. The problem is solved.

If a Coach is determined to stay in the coaching profession, he will develop from year to year. This much is true, no coach has a monopoly on the knowledge of basketball.
