More quotes by Bill Parcells
You get too old to lose. When you were a young guy, you bounced back from losses.
Bill Parcells
I think there are a lot of good people, a lot of good football guys in the NFL.
Bill Parcells
All you have to do is play better than the other guy and things go well. If you don't play better than the other players then somebody takes your place. Now a lot of guys, in this day and time with the transient nature of the sport, as soon as the competition gets too good, they want out.
Bill Parcells
Confidence is only born out of one thing demonstrated ability. It is not born of anything else. You cannot dream up confidence. You cannot fabricate it. You cannot wish it. You have to accomplish it.
Bill Parcells
God's been good to me, He really has.

Some guys are just very, very interested in their sport and their predecessors. I know I was a guy like that when I was a young coach.

Bill Parcells
In the end, I've found, people like the direct approach. It's much more valuable to them to have a leader who's absolutely clear and open than to have one who soft-soaps or talks in circles.
Bill Parcells
You lose with potential. You win with performance.
Bill Parcells
The quarterback is in charge of the chuck wagon. He's handing it out here and there, but he can't just throw it out there indiscriminately or the wolves will get him.
Bill Parcells
When Super Bowl time comes around, I get jealous.
Bill Parcells
I like linebackers. I collect 'em. You can't have too many good ones.
Bill Parcells
If the players don't trust the coach, it is a problem, and vice versa.
Bill Parcells
I'm not trying to keep anybody happy.
Bill Parcells
I'm trying to keep my own house from burning down. I can't worry about someone else's house.
Bill Parcells
Something goes wrong, I yell at them -'Fix it'- whether it's their fault or not. You can only really yell at the players you trust.
Bill Parcells
You can't dream up confidence. Confidence is born of demonstrated ability.
Bill Parcells
Creatures of similar plumages habitually congregate in places of closest proximity.
Bill Parcells
I just try to do the best job I possibly can - put the blinders on, go to work and be the best you can possibly be. Once you have done everything that you possibly can - you've put forth your greatest effort - then I can live with whatever's next.
