Teams do not go physically flat, they go mentally stale.

We know how rough the road will be, how heavy here the load will be, we know about the barricades that wait along the track, but we have set our soul ahead upon a certain goal ahead and nothing left from hell to sky shall ever turn us back.

Second place is meaningless. You can't always be first, but you have to believe that you should have been - that you were never beaten - that time just ran out on you.

If you are five minutes early, you are already ten minutes late.

Most people fail, not because of lack of desire, but, because of lack of commitment.

Winning is habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.

I derived my strength from daily mass and communion.
