One's desire, not ability, determines success.
If winning isn't everything, why do they keep score?
The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will.
It's not whether you get knocked down, it's whether you get up.
Most people fail, not because of lack of desire, but, because of lack of commitment.
Individual commitment to a group effort - that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work.

The man who wins, is the man who thinks he can.
To me, a leader is a visionary that energizes others. This definition of leadership has two key dimensions: a) creating the vision of the future, and b) inspiring others to make the vision a reality.
True perfection is unattainable, but if you chase perfection you will catch excellence!
Once you learn to quit, it becomes a habit.
You carry on no matter what are the obstacles. You simply refuse to give up - and, when the going gets tough, you get tougher. And, you win.

The harder you work, the harder it is to surrender.
The real glory is being knocked to your knees and then coming back. That's real glory. That's the essence of it.
Champions make their own luck.

We don't pray to win. We pray to play the best we can, and to keep us free from injury. And the prayer we say after the game is one of thanksgiving.
Mistakes are the necessary steps in the learning process; once they have served their purpose, they should be forgotten and not repeated.
Many more things would be accomplished if we didn't consider them impossible.
The greatest accomplishment is not in never failing, but in rising again after you fall.
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.
Practice does not make perfect. Only perfect practice makes perfect.
