Question:This is a quote that seems to not be on many websites, and usually sites someone who probably repeated it, and not the original person. I have seen a 2 entries saying "Emerson." Maybe that is Ralph Waldo Emerson. That may not have even been the person.
Thanks!
Answers:
It seems to be getting credited mostly to Pete Carril, the Princeton basketball coach (mostly because he used it as a title of a book and his motivational speeches) who claims to have learned the basic philosophy from his Spanish immigrant father. Emerson certainly sounds more plausible, though I couldn't find any reference for him and it may, indeed predate him, as well.
