“I am delighted to have you play football. I believe in rough, manly sports. But I do not believe in them if they degenerate into the sole end of any one's existence. I don't want you to sacrifice standing well in your studies to any over-athleticism; and I need not tell you that character counts for a great deal more than either intellect or body in winning success in life. Athletic proficiency is a mighty good servant, and like so many other good servants, a mighty bad master.” IfsWantNeedsBelieveWellsEndsPlayCharacterBodyWinningI BelieveSportsDealsExistenceStudySacrificeFootballMastersStandingI Believe InIntellectSoccerServantRoughSoleSuccess In LifeAthleticDelightedManlyDegeneratesProficiencyAthleticism Book:Theodore Roosevelt's Letters to His Children Source: Theodore Roosevelt's Letters to His Children

I mean you CAN do it, but not at a high level against younger guys who have more time and have not reached their peaks yet. There's only so much the body can do and once you're done, you can't go back in time.” WorldWayMeanHardDonePlayBodyGuyCan DoLevelsForeverOne ThingThis WorldFootballBasketballBeatsMore TimeYou Can Do ItHigh LevelHard WayBack In TimeGo Back In Time Author:Ronnie Coleman
