Leadership comes by the example you set through your work. It begins from the way you are perceived as a worker and the respect that comes with it.

We were talking about how old quarterbacks can't throw before 10 am... Practice starts too early for us. Wake me up in the middle of the night and I can throw. I can throw anytime.

You have to feel you're the best at what you do. You don't have to come out and say it. But you have to know it within yourself.

We didn't win a Super Bowl together, and that's something I'll always regret - not knowing what that feels like. But you and I have won more games together than any quarterback and coach combination in the history of the NFL.

Sometimes, I wish we were all amateurs again. I'd play for nothing. Ab-so-lute-ly free. But that's not the system.

The scoreboard can't make you a loser. If you walk off the field with your head up, you don't lose. You don't hang your head for nobody. People in the stands think you're the greatest or the worst - their opinion doesn't make a difference. The only opinion that makes any difference is your own opinion of yourself.

You get into feeling like you are in a zone. You can't be stopped. It's a good feeling but it never lasts.
