Vince Lombardi was born on June 11, 1913. He was one of the greatest coaches ever, teacher, coach and leader to 5 NFL Championships, and 2 victories in Super Bowl I and II (Packers), and instrumental for bringing a previously defeated team to their 1st winning season in more than a decade (Redskins), and unfortunately succumbed to colon cancer on September 3, 1970.
And before the Super Bowl, four teams in the race for the Vince Lombardi Super Bowl Trophy, what better way to rev up fans than hit you with some Vince Lombardi quotes :
* I firmly believe that any man’s finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all that he holds dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle – victorious.
* Once you agree upon the price you and your family must pay for success, it enables you to ignore the minor hurts, the opponent’s pressure, and the temporary failures.
* 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.
* If you can accept losing, you can’t win.
* 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.
* The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will.
* “Winning isn’t everything, it’s the only thing.”
* “Fatigue makes cowards of us all.”
* “Coaches who can outline plays on a black board are a dime a dozen. The ones who win get inside their player and motivate.”
* “The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will.”
* “I firmly believe that any man’s finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all that he holds dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle – victorious.”
* “Confidence is contagious. So is lack of confidence.”
* “Dictionary is the only place that success comes before work. Hard work is the price we must pay for success. I think you can accomplish anything if you’re willing to pay the price.”
* “Football is like life – it requires perseverance, self-denial, hard work, sacrifice, dedication and respect for authority.”
* “If you can accept losing, you can’t win.”
* “Individual commitment to a group effort – that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work.”
* “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.”
* “It’s not whether you get knocked down, it’s whether you get up.”
* “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.”
* “Once you agree upon the price you and your family must pay for success, it enables you to ignore the minor hurts, the opponent’s pressure, and the temporary failures.”
* “Once you learn to quit, it becomes a habit.”
* “People who work together will win, whether it be against complex football defenses, or the problems of modern society.”
