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.

At home we're the hosts, and I never liked the idea of being embarrassed in front of our friends.

If we're a hit, let 'em say anything they want.

Courage means being afraid to do something, but still doing it.

Yes, I know that you feel you are not strong enough. That's what the enemy thinks, too. But we're gonna fool them.

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.
