Bear Bryant
Baton Rouge happens to be the worst place in the world for a visiting team. It's like being inside a drum.
Bear Bryant

Bear Bryant
You take those little rascals, talk to them good, pat them on the back, let them think they are good, and they will go out and beat the biguns.
Bear Bryant
If you don't learn anything but self discipline, then athletics is worthwhile.
Bear Bryant
My approach to the game has been the same at all the places I've been. Vanilla. The sure way. That means, first of all, to win physically. If you got eleven on a field, and they beat the other eleven physically, they'll win. They will start forcing mistakes. They'll win in the fourth quarter.

I always want my players to show class, knock'em down, pat on the back, and run back to the huddle.
Bear Bryant
If you don't have discipline, you can't have a successful program.
Bear Bryant
Nearly every coach I've talked with tells me that the attention you get from media and other people is the thing you miss most. I don't know if that's right.
Bear Bryant
First there are those who are winners, and know they are winners. Then there are the losers who know they are losers. Then there are those who are not winners, but don't know it. They're the ones for me. They never quit trying. They're the soul of our game.
Bear Bryant
Mama wanted me to be a preacher. I told her coachin' and preachin' were a lot alike.
Bear Bryant
We can't have two standards, one set for the dedicated young men who want to do something ambitious and one set for those who don't.
Bear Bryant
No coach has ever won a game by what he knows it's what his players know that counts.
Bear Bryant
I make my practices real hard because if a player is a quitter, I want him to quit in practice, not in a game.
Bear Bryant
I'm no genius, but I'm a damn good football coach.
Bear Bryant
You win games with your strengths, not your weaknesses.
Bear Bryant
If you are going to be a successful duck hunter, you must go where the ducks are.
Bear Bryant
When you win, there's glory enough for everybody. When you lose, there's glory for none.
