Leaders aren't born they are made.

If it doesn't matter who wins or loses, then why do they keep score?

It is time for us all to stand and cheer for the doer, the achiever - the one who recognizes the challenges and does something about it.

I've been in football all my life, gentlemen, and I don't know whether I'm particularly qualified to be a part of anything else, except I consider it a great game, a game of many assets, by the way, and I think a symbol of what this country's best attributes are: courage and stamina and a coordinated efficiency or teamwork.

The greatest accomplishment is not in never failing, but in rising again after you fall.

After the cheers have died down and the stadium is empty, after the headlines have been written and after you are back in the quiet of your room and the championship ring has been placed on the dresser and all the pomp and fanfare has faded, the enduring things that are left are: the dedication to excellence, the dedication to victory, and the dedication to doing with our lives the very best we can to make the world a better place in which to live.

If you're lucky enough to find a guy with a lot of head and a lot of heart, he's never going to come off the field second.
