More quotes by Vince Lombardi
Mental toughness is a state of mind - you could call it 'character in action.'
Vince Lombardi
Gentlemen, we are going to relentlessly chase perfection, knowing full well we will not catch it.
Vince Lombardi
The spirit, the will to win, and the will to excel are the things that endure. These qualities are so much more important than the events that occur.
Vince Lombardi

Vince Lombardi
Unless a man believes in himself and makes a total commitment to his career and puts everything he has into it - his mind, his body, his heart - what's life worth to him?
Vince Lombardi
Leadership rests not only on outstanding ability. It also rests on commitment, loyalty and pride. It rests on followers who are ready to accept guidance. Leadership is the ability to direct people and - more important - to have those people accept that direction.
Vince Lombardi

Vince Lombardi

Vince Lombardi
Show me a good loser, and I'll show you a loser.
Vince Lombardi
One comes to believe whatever one repeats to oneself sufficiently often, whether the statement be true of false. It comes to be the dominating thought in one's mind.
Vince Lombardi
It's easy to have faith in yourself and have discipline when you're a winner, when you're number one. What you got to have is faith and discipline when you're not a winner.
Vince Lombardi
If you can accept losing, you can't win.
Vince Lombardi
Those who have invested the most are the last to surrender.
Vince Lombardi
I've been in football all my life, gentlemen, and I don't know whether I'm particularly qualified to be a part of anything else, except I consider it a great game, a game of many assets, by the way, and I think a symbol of what this country's best attributes are: courage and stamina and a coordinated efficiency or teamwork.
Vince Lombardi
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.
Vince Lombardi
