Danh ngôn của Lou Holtz (Sứ mệnh: 3)

Life is ten percent what happens to you and ninety percent how you respond to it.
If you're bored with life - you don't get up every morning with a burning desire to do things - you don't have enough goals.
I can't believe that God put us on this earth to be ordinary.
Do right. Do your best. Treat others as you want to be treated.
I never learn anything talking. I only learn things when I ask questions.
The problem with having a sense of humor is often that people you use it on aren't in a very good mood.
You're never as good as everyone tells you when you win, and you're never as bad as they say when you lose.
I think everyone should experience defeat at least once during their career. You learn a lot from it.
I look at athletes in all sports and try to picture what kind of football player they'd be, what position they'd play and so on.
Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it.
God looks after children, animals and idiots.
Sacrifice, discipline and prayer are essential. We gain strength through God's word. We receive grace from the sacrament. And when we fumble due to sin - and it's gonna happen - confession puts us back on the field.
I'm proud to be part of the Dr. Pepper Scholarship Giveaway. It's a great program that gives me the chance to brighten the day for some lucky college students with free tuition.
No matter what happens on the field, getting an education makes you a winner.
When the bank asks me about my assets, I include my friendship with Regis Philbin.
Virtually nothing is impossible in this world if you just put your mind to it and maintain a positive attitude.
I'll assure you this: I will have nothing to do with politics.
I follow three rules: Do the right thing, do the best you can, and always show people you care.
At home I have a copy of the April 21, 1986, issue of 'Sports Illustrated.' I'm on the cover with the blurb, 'Can Lou Do It?' I'd just arrived at Notre Dame, and with spring football underway, I was the focal point of that week's coverage.
My wife told me if there is any rumors about me, it better be about politics and not about my social life.
I do know this: God does answer your prayers, but it's not always in the way you expect. God knows what's best for us, though, so there's no need to worry when things don't go how we originally wanted them to go.
At age nine, I got a paper route. Sixty-six papers had to be delivered to sixty-six families every day. I also had to collect thirty cents a week from each customer. I owed the paper twenty cents per customer per week, and got to keep the rest. When I didn't collect, the balance came out of my profit. My average income was six dollars a week.
Our cellar home had a kitchen and a combination bedroom and half bath, which meant we had a sink next to the bed. We had no refrigerator, no shower or tub, and no privacy. My parents shared the bedroom with my sister and me.
I think that everybody needs four things in life. Everybody needs something to do regardless of age. Everybody needs someone to love. Everybody needs something to hope for, and, of course, everybody needs someone to believe in.
My philosophy in life is, Decide what you want to do. You have to have something to hope for.
Winners embrace hard work. They love the discipline of it, the trade-off they're making to win. Losers, on the other hand, see it as punishment. And that's the difference.
