If you're bored with life, if you don't get up every morning with a burning desire to do things, you don't have enough goals.

I never learn anything talking. I only learn things when I ask questions.

Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it.

Your talent determines what you can do. Your motivation determines how much you are willing to do. Your attitude determines how well you do it.

Life is 10 percent what happens to you and ninety percent how you respond to it.

Life is ten percent what happens to you and ninety percent how you respond to it.

No matter what happens on the field, getting an education makes you a winner.

We can all be successful and make money, but when we die, that ends. But when you are significant is when you help other people be successful. That lasts many a lifetime.

When the bank asks me about my assets, I include my friendship with Regis Philbin.

My wife told me if there is any rumors about me, it better be about politics and not about my social life.

The key to winning is choosing to do God's will and loving others with all you've got.

I can't believe that God put us on this earth to be ordinary.

I'm proud to be part of the Dr. Pepper Scholarship Giveaway. It's a great program that gives me the chance to brighten the day for some lucky college students with free tuition.

I think life is a matter of choices and that wherever we are, good or bad, is because of choices we make.

In football, it's the job of the player to play, the coach to coach, the official to officiate. Each guy is charged with upholding his end, nothing more. In golf, the player, coach and official are rolled into one, and they overlap completely. Golf really is the best microcosm of life - or at least the way life should be.

I do know this: God does answer your prayers, but it's not always in the way you expect. God knows what's best for us, though, so there's no need to worry when things don't go how we originally wanted them to go.

I follow three rules: Do the right thing, do the best you can, and always show people you care.

Do right. Do your best. Treat others as you want to be treated.
