More quotes by Vince Lombardi
Teamwork is what the Green Bay Packers were all about. They didn't do it for individual glory. They did it because they loved one another.
Vince Lombardi
They may not love you at the time, but they will later.
Vince Lombardi
Football isn't a contact sport it's a collision sport. Dancing is a contact sport.
Vince Lombardi
In a game like football, where you have very little time to decide what you are going to do, you have to react almost instinctively, naturally.
Vince Lombardi
Mental toughness is a state of mind - you could call it 'character in action.'
Vince Lombardi
Mental toughness is many things and rather difficult to explain. Its qualities are sacrifice and self-denial. Also, most importantly, it is combined with a perfectly disciplined will that refuses to give in. It's a state of mind-you could call it character in action.
Vince Lombardi
People who work together will win, whether it be against complex football defenses, or the problems of modern society.
Vince Lombardi
The Green Bay Packers never lost a football game. They just ran out of time.
Vince Lombardi
Fatigue makes cowards of us all.
Vince Lombardi
The harder you work, the harder it is to surrender.
Vince Lombardi
Leaders are not born, they're made.
Vince Lombardi
Relentlessly pursue perfection knowing we won't catch it, but in the process we'll achieve excellence.
Vince Lombardi
And the trouble with me is that my ego just can't accept a loss. I suppose that if I were more perfectly adjusted, I would toss off defeat, but my name is on this ball club. Thirty-six men publicly reflect me and reflect on me, and it's a matter of my pride.
Vince Lombardi
Some of us will do our jobs well and some will not, but we will be judged by only one thing-the result.
Vince Lombardi
If you're lucky enough to find a guy with a lot of head and a lot of heart, he's never going to come off the field second.
Vince Lombardi
If winning isn't everything, why do they keep score?
Vince Lombardi
There is no room for second place. There is only one place in my game and that is first place. I have finished second twice in my time at Green Bay and I never want to finish second again.
Vince Lombardi
Teams do not go physically flat, they go mentally stale.
Vince Lombardi
We know how rough the road will be, how heavy here the load will be, we know about the barricades that wait along the track, but we have set our soul ahead upon a certain goal ahead and nothing left from hell to sky shall ever turn us back.
Vince Lombardi
Winning is not the most important thing it's everything.
