Most all of us have watched "Remember the Titans," a true story about a football team and a community learning to come together and work together during a racial divide that was prominent around the nation at the time. The leader, Head Coach Herman Boone worked everyday not just on the X's and O's of football but on team bonding. Here are a few of his thoughts from a a speech he gave in 2007.“When you win the race, don’t forget to contribute to society.”
“Trust becomes the glue that binds us together.”
“People are going to watch you when you take a stand or become controversial.”
“You have to find ways to tear down the brick walls that lay in front of you.”
“You don’t have to always like your teammates but you have to respect them.”
“Knowledge is a prerequisite to harmony.”
“A team is a group of people with one vision and one heartbeat.”
“God works in mysterious ways.”
“Beliefs lead to…. Thoughts, which lead to….. Words, which lead to…. Actions, which lead to…. Your Character”
“We are the engineers that build bridges for people to cross new boundaries.”
“We need to be part of a color-neutral society.”
“Losing is a part of winning.”
