Mental toughness is a state of mind - you could call it 'character in action.'

We didn't lose the game; we just ran out of time.

Relentlessly pursue perfection knowing we won't catch it, but in the process we'll achieve excellence.

I said, 'You missed practice yesterday didn't you?' The player replied, 'No coach, not a bit.'

I will demand a commitment to excellence and to victory, and that is what life is all about.

Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.
