Without self-discipline, success is impossible, period.

It was a great game if you don't care who won. I cared.

Don't run if you can walk. Don't walk if you can stand. Don't stand if you can sit. Don't sit if you can lie down.

You might not be able to outthink, outmarket or outspend your competition, but you can outwork them.

If you don't make a total commitment to whatever you are doing, then you start looking to bail out the first time the boat starts leaking.

Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it.

We have an obligation to help people that cannot help themselves. The mentally retarded, the physically retarded, et cetera.

I don't drink water, haven't drank water in 40 years.

No matter what happens on the field, getting an education makes you a winner.

I look at athletes in all sports and try to picture what kind of football player they'd be, what position they'd play and so on.

I used to pray that God would make me a great athlete, and He never did.

It's not the load that breaks you down, it's the way you carry it.

It is a fine thing to have ability, but the ability to discover ability in others is the true test.

Do what's right! Do the best you can and treat others the way you want to be treated because they will ask three questions: (1) Can I trust you? (2) Are you committed? (3) Do you care about me as a person?

The freedom to do your own thing ends when you have obligations and responsibilities. If you want to fail yourself -- you can -- but you cannot do your own thing if you have responsibilities to team members.

Life is 10 percent what happens to you and 90 percent how you respond to it.

How you respond to the challenge in the second half will determine what you become after the game, whether you are a winner or a loser.

I believe your attitude is the most important choice you can make.

You build a successful life a day at a time.

The team that's on defense first (in overtime) has the advantage because they know whether they need a touchdown a field goal or just a score.
