Every time a
football player goes to ply his trade he's got to play from
the ground up -- from the soles of his feet right up to his
head. Every inch of him has to play. Some guys play with
their heads. That's OK You've got to be smart to be number
one in any business. But more importantly, you've got to
play with your heart, with every fiber of your body. If
you're lucky enough to find a guy with a lot of head and a
lot of heart, he's never going to come off the field second.
-- Vince Lombardi
1913-1970, American Football
Coach
Football is
like life -- it requires perseverance, self-denial, hard
work, sacrifice, dedication and respect for authority.
-- Vince Lombardi
1913-1970, American Football

Some people
try to find things in this game that don't exist but
football is only two things-blocking and tackling.
-- Vince Lombardi
1913-1970, American Football

Conventional
wisdom notwithstanding, there is no reason either in
football or in poetry why the two should not meet in a man's
life if he has the weight and cares about the words.
-- Archibald Macleish
1892-1982, American Poet
