Winning means being unafraid to lose.

Television isn't my career. Business is.

Ignoring facts does not make them go away.

In sports, teams win and individuals don't.

If it's not fun, you are not doing it right.

Leadership must be demonstrated, not announced.

Great quarterbacks, good quarterbacks, make plays.

It's perfectly okay to want to quit - as long as you don't.

I discovered that the more I hustled, the luckier I seemed to get.

Success, in my view, is the willingness to strive for something you really want

Maybe you can't play over your head at all. Maybe it's just potential you never knew you had.

If you wait for the right time or the good times to start a business, you wait all your life.

If football taught me anything about business, it is that you win the game one play at a time.

When everything else breaks down, I don't hesitate to roam out of the pocket and do the boogaloo.

Quarterbacks need to make their team better. If it's a bad team, they can even make a bad team better.

The greatness of America is capitalism, free market capitalism. The exceptionalism of American business.

It's a lonesome walk to the sidelines, especially when thousands of people are cheering your replacement.

Profit isn't and shouldn't be the mission of business. The mission of business is to help people. To help your customers, your co-workers, your employees, and your partners. Success is not a number - it's not X dollars or Y customers - it's a measurement of VALUE.

The pro athlete is a sad tale. He signs a big contract and thinks he's set for life. I didn't think I was set for life, and I don't now.

Success, in my view, is the willingness to strive for something you really want. The person not reaching the top is no less a success than the one who achieved it, if they both sweated blood, sweat and tears and overcame obstacles and fears. The failure to be perfect does not mean you're not a success.
