"I just have an enthusiasm for life...." - Quote by Lou Holtz

“We are not going to win because you have a new head coach, any more than you are going to fix a flat tire by changing the driver. We will win the minute all of us get rid of excuses as to why we can't win and stop wallowing in self-pity.”

“Everybody is looking for instant success, but it doesn't work that way. You build a successful life one day at a time.”

“You've got to have great athletes to win, I don't care who the coach is. You can't win without good athletes but you can lose with them. This is where coaching makes the difference.”

“What I do best is share my enthusiasm.”

“Have fire and spread all over. Work, work. Be the servant while leading, be unselfish, and never listen to one friend in private accusing another. Have infinite patience, and success is yours.”

“Persuasive communication involves enthusiasm, animation, audience participation, authenticity and spontaneity.”

“Old age is a tyrant, who forbids, under pain of death, the pleasures of youth.”

“Families ought to be noisy.”

“The living is merely a type of what is dead, and a very rare type.”
