More quotes by Vince Lombardi
Build for your team a feeling of oneness, of dependence on one another and of strength to be derived by unity.
Vince Lombardi
Gentleman, this is a football.
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
Praise in public criticize in private.
Vince Lombardi
Champions make their own luck.
Vince Lombardi
Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing.
Vince Lombardi
Winning is not a sometime thing it's an all time thing. You don't win once in a while, you don't do things right once in a while, you do them right all the time. Winning is habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.
Vince Lombardi
Second place is meaningless. You can't always be first, but you have to believe that you should have been - that you were never beaten - that time just ran out on you.
Vince Lombardi
Inches make champions.
Vince Lombardi
The Green Bay Packers never lost a football game. They just ran out of time.
Vince Lombardi
I don't necessarily have to like my players and associates but as their leader I must love them. Love is loyalty, love is teamwork, love respects the dignity of the individual. This is the strength of any organization.
Vince Lombardi
You defeat defeatism with confidence.
Vince Lombardi
In order to succeed, this group will need a singleness of purpose, they will need a dedication, and they will have to convince all of their prospects of the willingness to sacrifice.
Vince Lombardi
A man can be as great as he wants to be. If you believe in yourself and have the courage, the determination, the dedication, the competitive drive and if you are willing to sacrifice the little things in life and pay the price for the things that are worthwhile, it can be done.
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
At many a moment on many a day, I am convinced that pro football must be a game for madmen, and I must be one of them.
Vince Lombardi
There's only one way to succeed in anything, and that is to give it everything.
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 coaches who win are the ones who can motivate their players. Winning isn't everything, but the will to win is everything.
Vince Lombardi
The achievements of an organization are the results of the combined effort of each individual. People who work together will win, whether it be against complex football defenses, or the problems of modern society. Individual commitment to a group effort - that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work.
