Famous Sports Quotes

Famous inspirational sports quotes and sayings

 

A future in athletics may not be on the horizon if a coach refers to you as “Butterfinger,” not because of your love for the candy bar but your reputation for always dropping the ball. Famous sports quotes can provide inspiration to someone who is blessed with athletic ability to achieve the most when they’re competing. Inspirational sports quotes stress that true winners always compete by giving a game everything they have.

True victors also know that character comes before victory at any cost. A basketball player can hold their head high even when their shorts fall down during a tournament and a football player can laugh after telling a reporter that he played his best during the third inning of a game.

But an athlete can never look anyone in the eye if they’ve brought dishonor to themselves or their team. That’s why sports quotes emphasize that winning is only a goal, while honor in how a competition is played is a necessity.

Success isn't something you chase. It is something you have to put forth the effort for constantly; then maybe it'll come when you least expect it.
The key to success is failure.

If winning isn't everything, why do they keep score?

Anything is possible. You can be told that you have a 90-percent chance or a 50-percent chance or a 1-percent chance, but you have to believe, and you have to fight.
I figure the faster I pedal, the faster I can retire.
I think the race has everything. I think it has difficulty, it has joy, it has excitement, it even has death.
My thoughts before a big race are usually pretty simple. I tell myself: Get out of the blocks, run your race, stay relaxed. If you run your race, you'll win....Channel your energy. Focus.
- Carl Lewis
Losers quit when they're tired.  Winners quit when they've won.
An amateur practices something until he does it right, a pro practices something until he can't do it wrong.
I'm tired of hearing about money, money, money, money, money. I just want to play the game, drink Pepsi, wear Reebok.
