"One thing about me is I try..." - Quote by Lou Holtz

“It's the extra effort after you have done your best that creates victory.”

“If you continually ask yourself, "What's important now?", you won't waste time on the trivial.”

“Don't run if you can walk. Don't walk if you can stand. Don't stand if you can sit. Don't sit if you can lie down.”

“Confession of one's guilt purifies and uplifts. Its suppression is degrading and should always be avoided.”

“To be outspoken is easy when you do not wait to speak the complete truth.”

“God works wonders now and then; Behold a lawyer, an honest man.”

“If there is one tendency of the day which more than any other is unhealthy and undesirable, it is the tendency to deify mere "smartness," unaccompanied by a sense of moral accountability. We shall never make our republic what it should be until as a people we thoroughly understand and put in practice the doctrine that success is abhorrent if attained by the sacrifice of the fundamental principles of morality.”

“No man can lead a public career really worth leading, no man can act with rugged independence in serious crises, nor strike at great abuses, nor afford to make powerful and unscrupulous foes, if he is himself vulnerable in his private character.”

“Apply this simple rule to your conversations: If you wouldn't write it down and sign it, don't say it.”
