I had the voice of my high school track and cross country coach, Frank LaBianca, in my head today. This is always a good thing. Coach was also the school's print shop teacher and he printed pearls of wisdom for us on cards; a sampling of ones I have saved are posted above. These are wallet-sized, but Coach also printed banners and posted them on the walls of the print shop, where we held team meetings. The one I memorized was a quote by Theodore Roosevelt that began, "Far better is it to dare mighty things...." I remember surprising him one day by finishing the quote for him when he began it. (I still know it by heart.)
