37. Bear…Respected by his Peers

38. Bearon Winning "If you believe in yourself and have dedication and pride, and never quit, you'll be a winner. The price of victory is high but so are the rewards." “It's not the will to win, but the will to prepare to win that makes the difference.” "Little things make the difference. Everyone is well prepared in the big things, but only the winners perfect the little things."

39. Bear…Never Quit “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.” “I make my practices real hard because if a player is a quitter, I want him to quit in practice, not in a game.” "You never know how a horse will pull until you hook him to a heavy load." "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."

40. Bear….On Coaching Bear’s Three Rules for coaching: 1)” Surround yourself with people who can't live without football. 2) Recognize winners. They come In all forms. 3) Have a plan for everything.” “If anything goes bad, I did it. If anything goes semi-good, then we did it. If anything goes real good, then you did it. That's all it takes to get people to win football games.” "Sacrifice. Work. Self-discipline. I teach these things, and my boys don't forget them when they leave."
