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.     Vince Lombardi If winning isn't everything, why do they keep score?     Vince Lombardi If you aren't fired with enthusiasm, you will be fired with enthusiasm.     Vince Lombardi We would accomplish many more things if we did not think of them as impossible.     Vince Lombardi
