Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. Our greatest fear is not that we are not good enough, our greatest fear is our own ability beyond imagination, it is not the darkness that we fear That side of us is our bright side. A cowering attitude can't change the world, and hiding your inner potential doesn't make those around you feel more secure. We should all play to our inner potential, just like everyone is like a child, when we let ourselves shine, we unconsciously influence those around us so that they can do the same, not only do we get rid of our own fears , our presence also naturally liberates others. Coach Cater: Well, Yes, it doesn't seem like it's written in the novel, at least we don't have it today. But you guys, you are no different from champions, you never give up, champions are always high-minded. What you do today is far more important than winning or losing, far more important than the sports headlines in the newspaper tomorrow. What you have achieved is what some people have pursued all their lives, and what you have achieved is to surpass yourself. Gentlemen, I am very proud of you. I came to Richmond 4 months ago and I had a plan and it failed. I came to train basketball players, but you became students. I came to train boys, but you became men. For this, I want to thank you

    Barely given four stars, sports inspirational movies of this theme are almost the same, and the framework is indeed quite breakthrough. Samuel Jackson's excellent acting performance brought the iron-blooded coach to life. He was right. What is more important than basketball is studying and going to college. In order to completely change their destiny, to keep black children away from bullets and drugs, and to move towards their own real basketball road.

Coach Carter quotes

  • Coach Ken Carter: [to the people in attendance at the board hearing] You really need to consider the message you're sending this boys by ending the lockout. It's the same message that we as a culture send to our professional athletes; and that is that they are above the law. If these boys cannot honor the simple rules of a basketball contract, how long do you think it will be before they're out there breaking the law? I played ball here at Richmond High 30 years ago. It was the same thing then; some of my teammates went to prison, some of them even ended up dead. If you vote to end the lockout, you won't have to terminate me; I'll quit.

  • Coach Ken Carter: I end up taking a road trip to the suburbs where I find my drunk-ass point guard on top of Daddy's little princess.

    Worm: Actually, I was on the bottom, coach, she was on the top.
