Build up your weaknesses until they become your strong points.
Courage means being afraid to do something, but still doing it.
The secret is to work less as individuals and more as a team. As a coach, I play not my eleven best, but my best eleven.
The secret of winning is working more as a team, less as individuals.
Leaders are like eagles... they don't flock. You'll find them one at a time.
I don't like to lose, and that isn't so much because it is just a football game, but because defeat means the failure to reach your objective. I don't want a football player who doesn't take defeat to heart, who laughs it off with the thought, "Oh, well, there's another Saturday." The trouble in American life today, in business as well as in sports, is that too many people are afraid of competition. The result is that in some circles people have come to sneer at success if it costs hard work and training and sacrifice.
If winning isn't everything why bother to keep the score?
One man practicing sportsmanship is far better than a hundred teaching it.

I've found that prayers work best when you have big players.
Yes, I know that you feel you are not strong enough. That's what the enemy thinks, too. But we're gonna fool them.
An automobile goes nowhere efficiently unless it has a quick, hot spark to ignite things, to set the cogs of the machine in motion. So I try to make every player on my team feel he's the spark keeping our machine in motion.
Four years of football are calculated to breed in the average man more of the ingredients of success in life than almost any academic course he takes.
All the world loves a winner and has no time for a loser.
On the road we're somebody else's guests - and we play in a way that they're not going to forget we visited them.
Let's win one for the Gipper.
Football is a game played with arms, legs and shoulders but mostly from the neck up.
I have to get the most energy out of a man and have discovered that it cannot be done if he hates another man. Hate blocks his energy and he isn't up to par until he eliminates it and develops a friendly feeling...(towards all his teammates.)
There is no need for me continuing unless I'm able to improve.
Drink the first. Sip the second slowly. Skip the third.
Show me a gracious loser and I'll show you a failure.
There is not economy in getting cheap service or equipment. Buy the best and cry only once.
Play like you're positive on the victory, even though they're leading big now.
Win or lose, do it fairly.
