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
We didn't lose the game we just ran out of time.
Vince Lombardi
It does not matter how many times you get knocked down, but how many times you get up.
Vince Lombardi
Having the capacity to lead is not enough. The leader must be willing to use it.
Vince Lombardi
The object is to win fairly, squarely, by the rules, but to win.
Vince Lombardi
The objective is to win: fairly, squarely, decently, win by the rules, but still win.
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
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

Vince Lombardi
Success demands singleness of purpose.
Vince Lombardi
Winning is not everything - but making the effort to win was... If you can't accept losing, you can't win.
Vince Lombardi
Live as if you were living already for the second time.
Vince Lombardi
Winning is not a sometime thing it's an all the time thing.
Vince Lombardi
Preparedness is the ultimate confidence builder.
Vince Lombardi
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
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
Some need a whip and others a pat on the back and others are better off when they are ignored.
Vince Lombardi
Success is like anything worthwhile. It has a price. You have to pay the price to get to the point where success is possible.
Vince Lombardi
Confidence is contagious. So is lack of confidence.
Vince Lombardi
The strength of the group is the strength of the leaders.
