The Earth Turned to Bring Us Closer By Eugenio Montejo
The earth turned to bring us closer,
it spun on itself and within us,
and finally joined us together in this dream.

The Road Less Traveled
The Road Less Traveled By Robert Frost
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that, the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I marked the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Invictus
Invictus By William Ernest Henley
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul.

Win Forever Philosophy By Pete Carroll
The Wisdom Of Coaching...
Win Forever
To do it better than it has ever been done before
To be the only one doing it
Competition is everything
Something good is about to happen
Competition is the driving force for success
Relentless pursuit of a competitive edge
Competition is realizing how much you have inside of you
We only focus on what we can become
We will come to a point where we know we are going to win
No whining, no excuses, no complaining
Everyday we are on course to win
Finish everything
We are going to have the most fun
We condition at full speed to train at full speed to play at full speed
We never do what we don't do well
Everything counts
