General Dwight David Eisenhower: Quotes: Sports
I never saw a pessimistic general win a battle.

Michael Jordan: Quotes: Sports
I realized that if I was going to achieve anything in life I had to be aggressive. I had to get out there and go for it... I know fear is an obstacle for some people, but it's an illusion to me.

Lou Holtz: Quotes: Sports
I think everyone should experience defeat at least once during their career. You learn a lot from it.

John McEnroe: Quotes: Sports
I think it's the mark of a great player to be confident in tough situations.

Robert Schuller: Quotes: Sports
I will! I am! I can! I will actualize my dream. I will press ahead. I will settle down and see it through. I will solve the problems. I will pay the price. I will never walk away from my dream until I see my dream walk away: Alert! Alive! Achieved!

Lou Holtz: Quotes: Sports
I won't accept anything less than the best a player's capable of doing... and he has the right to expect the best that I can do for him and the team!

Milton Berle: Quotes: Sports
I'd rather be a "could-be', if I cannot be an "are'; because a "could-be" is a "maybe" who is reaching for a star. I'd rather be a "has-been" than a "might-have-been', by far; for a "might-have-been" has never "been", but a "has" was once an "are'.

Angel Cordero, Jr.: Quotes: Sports
If a horse has four legs, and I'm riding it, I think I can win.

Paul "Bear" Bryant: Quotes: Sports
If anything goes bad, I did it. If anything goes semi-good, then we did it. If anything goes really good, then you did it. That's all it takes to get people to win football games.
