Individual commitment to a group effort – that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work. -Vince Lombardi

Once you agree upon the price you and your family must pay for success, it enables you to ignore the minor hurts, the opponent’s pressure, and the temporary failures. – Vince Lombardi
