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 joy is in creating, not maintaining.

Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing.

Those who have invested the most are the last to surrender.

I firmly believe that any man's finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all that he holds dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle - victorious.

I don't build character. I eliminate the people who don't have it.

When you are through trying to improve, you are through.
