My dad was a high school coach for 30-plus years in North Carolina, and he was inducted into the North Carolina High School Coaches Hall of Fame. He's the best coach I've known, in every way, all the way around - relationships, motivation, going the extra mile, always putting his kids first and foremost.

Kelvin Sampson

I know I wouldn't be a New York Yankee if it wasn't for my mom: the guidance she gave me as a kid growing up, knowing the difference from right and wrong, how to treat people and how to go the extra mile and put in extra work, all that kind of stuff.

Aaron Judge

The best gift for an actor is the love of the fans. Many make sweet cards, write letters and even come and meet me wherever I am in India. The love and blessings of your elders is also always cherished, but the extra mile that the fans go to is memorable.

Abhishek Bachchan

The consummate gentleman on the planet today is George Clooney, who never fails to go the extra mile for people. Every person matters to George.

Anna Kendrick

Some people won't go the extra mile, and then on their birthday, when no one makes a fuss, they feel neglected and bitter.

Anne Lamott

I write about nerds who go the extra mile and become rock stars.

Ben Mezrich

I'm an entertainer. If people are paying good money for tickets they deserve the best show they can see. I don't get into lighting stuff on fire, but I do believe in going the extra mile.

Bryan White

Being on a set where the director has lost control is just sickening. No one goes the extra mile, there's a lot of eye-rolling... it just breeds inertia. If a director is in control, the crew follow their leader. But the second anyone senses the directors are not sure, people just swoop in.

Christine Vachon

We all know the dangers of sequels. Lightning doesn't strike twice in the same place too often, and I think you've got to move beyond it, go the extra mile and have the courage not to just repeat the first one.

Colin Firth

I think, as a performer, the biggest challenge is that you want to do a good job, pushing yourself. You want to go the extra mile every time.

Elizabeth Henstridge

Do more than is required. What is the distance between someone who achieves their goals consistently and those who spend their lives and careers merely following? The extra mile.

Gary Ryan Blair

Heroes have a rough time because they stand up when they ought not to, they speak when they ought not to; they always have to go that extra mile.

George Foreman

I'll admit I started off getting actors to sing my compositions as a marketing strategy, to give the songs and films extra mileage.

Gopi Sundar

I do music that makes me happy by challenging myself to go the extra mile and not do what everyone else is doing.

Jay IDK

Looking at it half-full, there was only two singers in Motley, me and Vince, and I'm still here, 25 years later. And whether I like it or not, I'm the other singer for Motley Crue, and not to sound weird, but I've gotten a lot of extra mileage, I think, out of my career because of it, so I have nothing but positive things to say.

John Corabi

My dad was a high school coach for 30-plus years in North Carolina, and he was inducted into the North Carolina High School Coaches Hall of Fame. He's the best coach I've known, in every way, all the way around - relationships, motivation, going the extra mile, always putting his kids first and foremost.

Kelvin Sampson

John Cena has granted more wishes than anybody in history. He goes the extra mile.

Mark Henry

I totally let myself indulge, but I make little deals with myself. If I have an extra cupcake, I'll run a couple of extra miles. I think it's all about balance and not getting into extremes with dieting and exercising. Having a healthy attitude is important, too!

Megan Hilty

One of our secret-sauce powers is that our people don't just write checks and place the ads, but our employees go the extra mile to get things done.

Nancy Dubuc

You can start right where you stand and apply the habit of going the extra mile by rendering more service and better service than you are now being paid for.

Napoleon Hill

If you're mentally ready, you're willing to go the extra mile.
