A leader puts himself last then he sticks out.

It's a bad place when you see sometimes how coaches treat people. I don't even want to say players. I want to say people. They're people before they become a player.

You never judge a person if they're going through their downs because you always stick with them when they're going through their ups. If you stay in football business long enough, you're going to have some bad games and you're going to have some bad seasons.

There's no I on the football field. We have a total commitment to each other when we're out there. There is no doubt. It doesn't matter. The wins and losses of the game don't resonate with us. What resonates with us is how much effort would you give for the man next to you.

One of the things I've always said is that if you're given the ability to coach kids, then you're really given the ability to be a father or parent of some sort.

I love passion. I love for a coach to be passionate.

The only thing that could pull me away, was hard work.

Do whatever you gotta do to chase your legacy every second of your life.
Ray Lewis
Image
We get one opportunity in life, one chance at life to do whatever you're going to do, and lay your foundation and make whatever mark you're going to make. Whatever legacy you're going to leave leave your legacy!

There's a spirit that grabs me, and it's in every one of you guys, but the questions is, how much time are we wasting?

I have so much respect for people that are my elders. You aren't going to hear me cursing around people that are 60 and 70 years old.

I love watching the Serengeti, the way lions live. The only way the king lion loses his crown is by somebody physically defeating him.
