“You have to decide what your highest priorities are and have the courage--pleasantly, smilingly, nonapologetically--to say 'no' to other things. And the way you do that is by having a bigger 'yes' burning inside. The enemy of the 'best' is often the 'good.'†-Stephen Covey

" Far better it is to dare mighty things to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat."

-Theodore Roosevelt

" Champions are a rare breed. They trust God while others ask for answers. They step forward while others pray for volunteers. They see beyond the dangers, the risks, the obstacles, the hardships." -Unknown

Were not attained by sudden flight,

But they, while their companions slept,

Were toiling upwards in the night." -Winston Churchill

"I know the price of success: dedication, hard work and an unremitting devotion to the things you want to see happen."

-Frank Lloyd Wright

"The tragedy of life is not that a man loses, but that he almost wins."

-- Heywood Brown –

"The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who at best, if he wins, knows the thrills of high achievement, and, if he fails, at least fails daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat." - Theodore Roosevelt

Quotes are right up my alley. I'm sure I can find a bunch more that I have around.

This is something I wrote that I'm sure I've said to many different players many different times in many different ways, but to me, this always got me going.

Look around. Everyone sitting here is dependent on the guy sitting next to him, and the one sitting next to him, and the guy sitting across from all of them. You need everyone in the room to play the game. That’s the beauty of it. Hockey games are won not by putting the best five guys on the ice. Hockey games are won by taking 20 guys and getting them to play together. Gentlemen, you can play the game. Just go out there and play it. And feel it. That’s how you win.

" My competition said I wasn't ready to face him,

My teammates said I think we need to replace him,

All the haters used to say boo we hate him,

I want to thank ya'll for the inspiration."
