“There are many people, particularly in sports who think that success and excellence are the same thing and they are not the same thing. Excellence is something that is lasting and dependable and largely within a person's control. In contrast, success is perishable and is often outside our control...If you strive for excellence, you will probably be successful eventually...people who put excellence in first place have the patience to end up with success...An additional burden for the victim of the success mentality is that he/she is threatened by success of others and resents real excellence. In contrast, the person fascinated by quality is excited when he/she sees it in others.”
- Joe Paterno - Penn State Football Coach 1990
