Knowing how well a player executes all these little things is the key to unlocking career-best performances.” ~ Pat Riley

No matter how grandiose, how well-planned, how apparently foolproof of an evil plan, the inherent sinfulness will by definition rebound upon its instigators. No matter how apparently successful it may seem upon the way, at the end, it will wreck itself. It will founder upon the rocks of iniquity and sink headfirst to vanish without trace into the seas of oblivion.” ~ Neil Gaiman

Equal justice and equal opportunity are ideals we should seek, but we should recognize that humans administer the ideals and that humans do not have equal ability.” ~ Frank Herbert

basketball and Mr. Caruso told me I would have to get
an athletic supporter. He didn’t express himself exactly
that way, though. He said, ‘Hey, you, one day you’re gonna
go up for a rebound and the family jewels aren’t gonna
go with ya.’ I had no idea what he was talking about.
Next day I showed up for practice without my watch and
my mezuzah. He said, ‘Did ya take care of the family jewels?’
I said, ‘I left ’em in my locker.’ Took us a half hour to
revive Mr. Caruso.” ~ Tommy Lasorda - “A good man may fall, but he falls like a ball [and rebounds]; the ignoble man falls like a lump of clay.” ~ Bhartrhari

All these developments are connected to lifestyle changes.” ~ Richard Florida

Resists the weight of many a massy beam.
To sink the wood the more we vainly toil,
The higher it rebounds, with swift recoil.
Yet that the beam would of itself ascend
No man will rashly venture to contend.
Thus too the flame has weight, though highly rare,
Nor mounts but when compelled by heavier air.” ~ Lucretius - “It’s not how far you fall, but how high you bounce that counts.” ~ Zig Ziglar , Rebound quotes bounce back

Violence, even well-intentioned, always rebounds upon oneself. The Master does his job and then stops. He understands that the universe is forever out of control and that trying to dominate events goes against the current of the Tao. Because he believes in himself, he doesn’t try to convince others. Because he is content with himself, he doesn’t need others’ approval. Because he accepts himself, the whole world accepts him.” ~ Laozi
- “Wimps go up to rebound with one hand, not two.” ~ Tom Izzo

After many years of pulling back, it was fun to see guests flirting with temptation, whether that was a new home, a new car, a new look or just to learn more about the trends. Others were happy to take in all the action.” ~ Andrea Savage

I am thankful that one day the born and the unborn will be equal under the eyes of the law in every state.” ~ Mike Huckabee

- “Back when I played, basketball was all about fundamentals, about hustling, getting those loose balls, all those rebounds under the basket. That equals up to 12, 14, 16 points. You can lose a game with that much. It’s different watching basketball now. People don’t play the same way. It doesn’t matter if you score if you can’t stop the other team from scoring.

Everybody should be under the board, trying to get that ball.” ~ Leslie Jones
-
“A coke machine can get a rebound in 20 minutes.” ~ George Karl

I follow it.” ~ Phil Jackson
- “There is no answer to the Pythagorean theorem. Well, there is an answer, but by the time you figure it out, I got 40 points, 10 rebounds and then we’re planning for the parade.” ~ Shaquille O’Neal
