At Alabama, our players don't win Heisman Trophies. Our teams win National Championships.

It's not the will to win that matters-everyone has that. It's the will to prepare to win that matters.

You never know how a horse will pull until you hook him to a heavy load.

Don't give up at half time. Concentrate on winning the second half.

Never quit. It is the easiest cop-out in the world. Set a goal and don't quit until you attain it. When you do attain it, set another goal, and don't quit until you reach it. Never quit.

Sure, I'd love to beat Notre Dame, don't get me wrong. But nothing matters more than beating that cow college on the other side of the state!

There is a big difference in wanting to and willing to.

Never be too proud to get down on your knees and pray.

I make my practices real hard because if a player is a quitter, I want him to quit in practice, not in a game.

Little things make the difference. Everyone is well prepared in the big things, but only the winners perfect the little things.

The first time you quit, it's hard. The second time, it gets easier. The third time, you don't even have to think about it.

The wound is the seed of wonder.

The Bible was composed in such a way that as beginners mature, its meaning grows with them.

One of the most significant barriers to progress is the lack of effective leadership.

I would also certainly continue to keep loan repayment interest rates as low as possible. And I would spread the financial aid a little less thinly across all income brackets.

Yeah. When you want what's real and you try to find that in high school, you might as well be looking for a mossy rock beside a babbling brook on the corner of Sixth and Pine in downtown Seattle.

Time erases both the best and the worst of us.

We're all a big hippie family so I got five sisters and a bunch of different mothers. Not really, but my sisters' mothers are all good friends with my mother. We're a big family, 25 people.

I actually got a nice surprise about being a mother because I expected it to be harder and to have to make more adaptations.

I repented at 28 and turned to Jesus.
