...even after you've just won the super bowl -- especially after you've just won the super bowl -- there's always next year. if winning isn't everything; it's the only thing, then the only thing is nothing -- emptiness, the nightmare of life without ultimate meaning.

...even after you've just won the super bowl -- especially after you've just won the super bowl -- there's always next year. if winning isn't everything; it's the only thing, then the only thing is nothing -- emptiness, the nightmare of life without ultimate meaning.

More From Tom Landry

I never wanted our players to think the super bowl was the ultimate. i always talk about 'yes, we're going to win, but what are we going to do as we're winning? what are we going to do after we win?' winning the super bowl is not the destination. it's not an end point. it's what you do from here.
Winning Player Thinking
'emptiness' means empty of a separate self. it is full of everything, full of life. the word emptiness should not scare us. it is a wonderful word. to be empty does not mean non-existent. emptiness is the ground of everything. thanks to emptiness, everything is possible.
Mean Self Scare
As soon as you look at the world through an ideology you are finished. no reality fits an ideology. life is beyond that. that is why people are always searching for a meaning to life. but life has no meaning; it cannot have meaning because meaning is a formula; meaning is something that makes sense to the mind. every time you make sense out of reality, you bump into something that destroys the sense you made . meaning is only found when you go beyond meaning.

This is a devastating problem, is, the longer our children are in school, the worse they do. year after year after year, our children in america are falling further behind. our 3- and 4-year-olds enter kindergarten ok, and they fall further and further behind. each year, children in other countries are learning more than children in this country. and so the gap between american student performance in singapore and finland and south korea and canada and these other countries, the gap widens year after year after year.

Everything is emptiness. everything else, accidental. emptiness brings peace to your loving. everything else, disease. in this world of trickery, emptiness is what your soul wants.

Winning the super bowl was obviously a great one, but the joy i felt of going to the super bowl, it was what i felt about the pittsburgh steelers and where we came from, the history of us to that point.

I have also heard and read various accounts of why they [sheldon leonard and carl reiner] liked me. my favorites? i wasn't too good-looking, i walked a little funny, and i was basically kind of average and ordinary. i guess my lack of perfection turned out to be a winning hand. let that be a lesson for future generations.
