To my wife 'I told you I was sick'.
I think everyone should experience defeat at least once during their career. You learn a lot from it.
Do what's right. Be on time, be polite, and be honest; remain free from drugs; and if you have any questions, get out your Bible. 2. Do your best. Mediocrity is unacceptable when you are capable of doing better. 3. Treat others as you want to be treated. Practice love and understanding.
The man who complains about the way the ball bounces is likely the one who dropped it.
Those who know Notre Dame, no explanation’s necessary. Those who don’t, no explanation will suffice.
Show me someone who has done something worthwhile, and I'll show you someone who has overcome adversity.
It's not the load that breaks you down, it's the way you carry it.
I asked you to pack your headgear and shoulder pads, but more importantly your defense and your kicking game, because that's what wins game like this.
You'll never get ahead of anyone as long as you try to get even with him.
People eyeing you as a potential leader tend to ask three questions: Are you committed? Do you care about me? Can I trust you?
If you're bored with life - you don't get up every morning with a burning desire to do things - you don't have enough goals.
The standards you establish for others must reflect the standards you set for yourself. No one will follow a hypocrite.
You were not born a winner, and you were not born a loser. You are what you make yourself be.
It's always better to face the truth, no matter how uncomfortable, than to continue coddling a lie.
