Gale Sayers Quotations

We have about 4 million people who have voted for who they want to see in the Hall of Fame. There are some people they put down that are pretty good players. You have Ray Guy, Jim Plunkett, Lester Hayes and Donnie Shell.

Jay Cutler, he's a fine quarterback, but I think at times he gets a little nicked up.

People think I played 10 years. I played 68 ball games.

I had a career that was very short, but it had a lot of thrills.

I have no idea what I did. I heard people talk about dead leg, shake, change of pace and all that, but I did things without thinking about them.

When you step onto that field, you cannot concede a thing.

Athletes as role models and heroes is a hoax, a sick hoax. The men and women who are fighting in Iraq, they are the true heroes.

There comes a time when you have to stand up and be counted.

I don't care to be remembered as the man who scored six touchdowns in a game. I want to be remembered as a winner in life.

Our young people look up to us. Let us not let them down. Our young people need us. Saving them will make heroes of us all.
