People who are in it for their own good are individualists. They don't share the same heartbeat that makes a team so great. A great unit, whether it be football or any organization, shares the same heartbeat.

I ain't never had much fun. I ain't never been two inches away from a football. Here guys go fishing on the day of the game, hunting, golfing, and all I want to do is be alone, studying how not to lose.

If anything goes bad, I did it. If anything goes semi-good, we did it. If anything goes real good, then you did it. That's all it takes to get people to win football games for you.

The first time you quit, it's hard. The second time, it gets easier. The third time, you don't even have to think about it.

I left Texas A&M because my school called me. Mama called, and when Mama calls, then you just have to come running.

A champion pays an extra price to be better than anyone else.

I'll put you through hell, but at the end of it all we'll be champions.
