Vince Lombardi

WEEK 3 – APRIL 2007


Quotes this week come from one of American football’s most accomplished and respected coaches, the legendary Vince Lombardi. His words say it all.


The spirit, the will to win, and the will to excel are the things that endure. These qualities are so much more important than the events that occur.

Confidence is contagious. So is lack of confidence.

Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.

It’s not whether you get knocked down, it’s whether you get up.

Life’s battles don’t always go to the stronger or faster man. But sooner or later the man who wins, is the man who thinks he can.


Work hard, believe in what you are doing and aim high. You can achieve it all.
