Quotes:

Tennis Coach: [Jonah finishing a tennis lesson] Good one! Okay, come on in.
Jonah Roberts: [catching his breath] Think I'll beat Evan Black?
Tennis Coach: What do you think?
Jonah Roberts: Yeah!
Tennis Coach: You should. If nothing throws you off your stride. But the world won't end if you don't win, will it?
Jonah Roberts: No, winning isn't everything.
[smiles]
Jonah Roberts: It's the only thing.
Tennis Coach: [frowns] Vince Lombardi might have meant that when he said it. But if I were you, I'd give it a lot of thought.
