I don't apologize for anything. When I make a mistake, I take the blame and go on from there. I just despise to lose, and that has taken a man of mediocre ability and made a pretty good coach out of him.

Indomitable in victory, insufferable in defeat.

The only way we'd get beaten was if we got a little fat-headed, if we didn't train right, if we had dissension on the squad.

A man is always better than he thinks.

When you're winning - you don't need any friends. When you're losing - you don't have any friends anyway.

The five big mistakes in football are the fumble, the interception, the penalty, the badly called play, the blocked punt—and most of these originate with the quarterback. Find a mistake-proof quarterback and you have this game won.

You'll find out that nothing that comes easy is worth a dime. As a matter of fact, I never saw a football player make a tackle with a smile on his face. Never.
