" What you are as a person is far more important then what you are as a basketball player"

John Wooden

This quote means that its more important who you are instead of just being a good athlete. Who you really are shows the value of yourself whether your good or bad instead of just being able to determine it by how good of a athlete you are. For example, if your a really good person and also very good like at basket ball then who you really show is you then that lets people know what type of person you are. Just because you are good at sports doesn't mean you are actually a good person and that you are the best there could be. Its important to be able to show who you really are instead if showing at what your good at and something you could go pro on. Showing that you are a good person is what will make more people happy because you are truly being able to be yourself. Being able to show that you are good at sports is good but doesn't really show who you really are as a person.
