This compilation has been more than 35 years in making. As a teacher, Trimble has always infused quotations from historical figures. Some even adorn the walls of his classroom. In his coaching, Trimble has always used quotes to inspire and to motivate. It naturally follows that he would write down these snippets and sayings. It began as a spiral notebook and as he accumulated more than 500 of them, he created a more aesthetic compilation. The quotes fall into 31 categories including leadership, character, ethics, teaching, coaching, opportunity and more. Now, more than 1000 quotes fill this volume that can be used by teachers and coaches to motivate and inspire.
