More quotes by 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

Vince Lombardi

Vince Lombardi
The leader can never close the gap between himself and the group. If he does, he is no longer what he must be. He must walk a tightrope between the consent he must win and the control he must exert.
Vince Lombardi
The achievements of an organization are the results of the combined effort of each individual.
Vince Lombardi

Vince Lombardi
Regardless of what you do put in, every game boils down to doing the things you do best and doing them over and over again.
Vince Lombardi
No one is ever hurt. Hurt is in the mind.
Vince Lombardi
Success is not a sometimes thing. In other words, you don't do what is right once in awhile, but all the time. Success is a habit. Winning is a habit.
Vince Lombardi
I don't build character. I eliminate the people who don't have it.
Vince Lombardi
Winning is not everything, but wanting to win is.
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
