We needed this for morale. We have the talent, the desire and the ambition to win, we just hadn't. I have been trying to teach them to believe that they can win.

Encumbered forever by desire and ambition, There's a hunger still unsatisfied, Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon, Though down this road we've been so many times

True ambition is not what we thought it was. True ambition is the profound desire to live usefully and walk humbly under the grace of God.

Every man has his secret desire, I suppose, and mine is someday to own a farm.

It has taken years and years and years of applying his talent and his mental desire to just get to the major leagues. And it just shows how fragile it is. You can blow it fairly easily.

If I weren't as talented as I am ambitious, I would be a gross monstrosity.
