Leaders are made, they are not born. They are made by hard effort, which is the price which all of us must pay to achieve any goal that is worthwhile.

Winning isn't everything, but striving to win is.

The leader can never close the gap between himself and the group. If he does, he is no longer what he must be. He must walk a tightrope between the consent he must win and the control he must exert.

I've never known a man worth his salt who, in the long run, deep down in his heart, didn't appreciate the grind, the discipline

Show me a good loser, and I'll show you a loser.

If you really want something , you can have it if you're willing to pay the price. And the price means you have to work better and harder than the next guy.

Choose to achieve perfection. We won't achieve it because perfection is impossible. But by pursuing perfection, we will achieve excellence.
