Leprechaun Express: Notre Dame Football Intel Update Sept. 10 2010
"You know what it takes to win. Just look at my fist. When I make a fist, it's strong and you can't tear it apart. As long as there's unity, there's strength. We must become so close with the bonds of loyalty and sacrifice, so deep with the conviction of the sole purpose, that no one, no group, no thing, can ever tear us apart." — Ara Parseghian, first team meeting as Notre Dame Head Football Coach, Golden Dome auditorium, 1964
"Life is 10% what happens to you, 90% how you react to it." — Lou Holtz
"Gentlemen, this is a football." — Frank Leahy
Rockne: "I want you to run with the ball." Gipp: "How far?" — Knute Rockne and George Gipp, as depicted in the flim "Knute Rockne, All-American"
"Someday, Rock, when the team's up against it, and the breaks are beating the boys, tell 'em to go out there, and give it all they've got, and win just one for the Gipper. I don't know where I'll be then, Rock; but I'll know about it; and I'll be happy." — George Gipp, as depicted by Ronald Reagan in the film "Knute Rockne, All-American"
"There's one for the Gipper." - Jack Chevigny, as he crossed the goal-line scoring the winning touchdown
