The man who wins, is the man who thinks he can.
Vince Lombardi
Image
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
Image
Leaders aren't born they are made. And they are made just like anything else, through hard work. And that's the price we'll have to pay to achieve that goal, or any goal.
Vince Lombardi
Image
Individual commitment to a group effort - that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work.

Vince Lombardi
Image
Coaches who can outline plays on a black board are a dime a dozen. The ones who win get inside their player and motivate.
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
Image
Football is a game of cliches, and I believe in every one of them.
Vince Lombardi
Image
Leaders are made, they are not born. They are made by hard effort, which is the price which all of us must pay to achieve any goal that is worthwhile.
Vince Lombardi
Image
Football isn't a contact sport it's a collision sport. Dancing is a contact sport.
Vince Lombardi
Image
Some people try to find things in this game that don't exist but football is only two things - blocking and tackling.
Vince Lombardi
Image
There is something good in men that really yearn for discipline.
Vince Lombardi
Image
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
Image
Leadership is not just one quality, but rather a blend of many qualities and while no one individual possesses all of the needed talents that go into leadership, each man can develop a combination to make him a leader.
Vince Lombardi
Image
You never win a game unless you beat the guy in front of you. The score on the board doesn't mean a thing. That's for the fans. You've got to win the war with the man in front of you. You've got to get your man.
