"Mama wanted me to be a preacher. I told her coachin' and preachin' were a lot alike."
Bear Bryant
"The old lessons (work, self-discipline, sacrifice, teamwork, fighting to achieve) aren't being taught by many people other than football coaches these days. The football coach has a captive audience and can teach these lessons because the
communication lines between himself and his players are more wide open than between kids and parents. We better teach these lessons or else the country's future population will be made up of a majority of crooks, drug addicts, or people on relief."
Bear Bryant
"I have tried to teach them to show class, to have pride, and to display character. I think football, winning games, takes care of itself if you do that."
Bear Bryant
