More quotes by Bear Bryant

Bear Bryant
It's nice to have the opportunity to play for so much money, but it's nicer to win it.

Bear Bryant
But there's one thing about quitters you have to guard against - they are contagious. If one boy goes, the chances are he'll take somebody with him, and you don't want that. So when they would start acting that way, I used to pack them up and get them out, or embarrass them, or do something to turn them around.
Bear Bryant
There's a lot of blood, sweat, and guts between dreams and success.
Bear Bryant
If you don't learn anything but self discipline, then athletics is worthwhile.
Bear Bryant
Georgia Tech beat us and Mississippi Southern tied us last year, and Texas beat us after we had the game won. We only played about five games the way we were capable of playing and lost one of those.
Bear Bryant
If it is worth playing, it is worth paying the price to win.
Bear Bryant
I'm no innovator. If anything I'm a stealer, or borrower. I've stolen or borrowed from more people than you can shake a stick at.
Bear Bryant
