The best Quotes by Emmitt Smith

Emmitt James Smith III (born May 15, 1969) is an American former football running back who played in the National Football League (NFL) for 15 seasons, primarily with the Dallas Cowboys.

We are all born naked into this world, but each of us is fully clothed in potential.

Talent Being naked

Consistency is one of the hallmarks of my career. You knew what you were going to get out of E-Smith every game, every year, no matter if I was 22, 21 or 35 years old.

For me, winning isn't something that happens suddenly on the field when the whistle blows and the crowds roar. Winning is something that builds physically and mentally every day that you train and every night that you dream.

Do not compare yourself. Find out what God has placed in your ability.

Vision gets the dreams started. Dreaming employs your God-given imagination to reinforce the vision. Both are part of something I believe is absolutely necessary to building the life of a champion, a winner, a person of high character who is consistently at the top of whatever game he or she is in.

Super Bowl V was the Colts against the Cowboys and Jim O'Brien kicked a 32 yard field goal to beat the Cowboys. I was traumatized by it. Everyone at school knew I was the only Cowboy fan in the area. I didn't want to go to school and I begged and pleaded with my parents. Those are indelible memories when you are a kid.

I mean, they got a good defense, but we got a really good offense.

Jordan Love (as player at Green Bay Packers) - January 2024, on W against the Cowboys

Green Bay Packers Dallas Cowboys

I always wanted to be the very best receiver the Cowboys ever had. That was my goal coming in as a rookie and my goal throughout my career: being the best they ever had, going up in the Ring of Honor.

Michael Irvin

I'm the top receiver in the game. There's no question about it.

CeeDee Lamb (as player at Dallas Cowboys) - November 2023

Very excited to be here, first and foremost. Just excited to get to continue to know the guys. Obviously, for me, it's just learning, taking it one day at a time, not really trying to look too far forward or anything like that. But really right now, just trying to be a sponge and learn and enjoy every day.

Trey Lance - August 2023

Texas Stadium has a hole in its roof so God can watch his favorite team play.

They appear on television so often that their faces are as familiar to the public as presidents and movie stars. They are the Dallas Cowboys, "America's Team".

1978, John Facenda

I hate to lose more than I love winning, and I'm coming to Dallas to win a Super Bowl.

There's no such thing as individual isolated success in football. You can see it in basketball, Lebron takes the ball off one rim, he dunks it on the other, he does it all by himself. You see it in baseball, Aaron Judge snaps that home all by himself. And golf, Tiger drops that putty, does it all by himself. In football, you don't do anything all by yourself. It's always about the man next to me.

Kyle Shanahan - January 2024, after W against the Lions

San Francisco 49ers

I feel like as a receiver, you have to expect the unexpected. No matter where the ball is, it's your job to catch it. The quarterback has done all the hard parts. He got the ball out of his hands. He made checks. He did everything else. Now it's you. Just understanding that everything is not going to go as planned and the ball is not going to be where it needs to be all the time. Prepare myself for the worst, and when the best happens, it feels great.

CeeDee Lamb - August 2020

It's definitely a blessing, but you don't think about it a ton, because once you win the AFC Championship game - now you're in the Super Bowl and you're focused on that game.

Harrison Butker - February 2024

Some a-hole leaks it online and I'm like, you know, looking at the guy in the mirror brushing my teeth, "Dude, what have you done? This could be punishable by law!" But the internet forced the studio to say, "We're gonna make this movie", and 24 hours later, that movie had a green light.
