Quote of the Week: In Celebration of Lombardi Gras

Note: If a President’s Day quote suits your purpose better, take a look at A Tip from the President and What’s your favorite presidential quote?

While  the official kick off of Mardi Gras isn’t until tomorrow,  the party started last week when the New Orleans Saints won Super Bowl XLIV and brought home the Lombardi Trophy.  It was a great victory – a much needed morale boost – for a city that has been slowly re-building from the devastation from Hurricane Katrina in 2005.  Many have called the celebration, “Lombardi Gras”.

It’s a perfect time to remember wise words from Vince Lombardi that serve to boost morale and productivity – words that can help us get 2 goal – words that can help us help others do the same.  All three of the quotes below have the same basic meaning.  We’ve included all three so you can choose the best one for your purpose.

1. “It’s easy to have faith in yourself and have discipline when you’re a winner, when you’re number one. What you’ve got to have is faith and discipline when you’re not a winner.  It’s not whether you get knocked down, it’s whether you get up.”

2.  “The greatest accomplishment is not in never falling, but in rising again after you fall.”

3.  “Winners never quit and quitters never win.”
