If you are going to be a successful duck hunter, you must go where the ducks are.

Losing doesn't make me want to quit. It makes me want to fight that much harder.

Never quit. It is the easiest cop-out in the world. Set a goal and don't quit until you attain it. When you do attain it, set another goal, and don't quit until you reach it. Never quit.

I'm not much of a golfer, I don't have any friends and all I like to do is go home and be alone, and not worry about ways not to lose.

When I was a young coach I used to say, "Treat everybody alike." That's bull. Treat everybody fairly.

Baton Rouge happens to be the worst place in the world for a visiting team. It's like being inside a drum.

I have always tried to teach my players to be fighters. When I say that, I don't mean put up your dukes and get in a fistfight over something. I'm talking about facing adversity in your life. There is not a person alive who isn't going to have some awfully bad days in their lives. I tell my players that what I mean by fighting is when your house burns down, and your wife runs off with the drummer, and you've lost your job and all the odds are against you. What are you going to do? Most people just lay down and quit. Well, I want my people to fight back.
