You don't go to Notre Dame to learn something; you go to Notre Dame to be somebody.

I truly believe the things Notre Dame stands for.

Notre Dame is the one school that has a national recruiting base, from Florida to Texas to California.

I've followed Notre Dame football since 1946, when I listened on the radio and Johnny Lujack tackled Doc Blanchard in the open field to preserve a 0-0 tie.

I'm an old man, and all my life I've said that Notre Dame should remain independent because it's a national school.

The requests that you have are unbelievable, ... That's what Notre Dame is all about.
