The highest compliment that you can pay me is to say that I work hard every day, that I never dog it.

Everything I did in hockey, I worked for.

The only shot I ALWAYS miss, is the one I don't take!

Sometimes people ask, 'Are hockey fights real?' I say, 'If they weren't, I'd get in more of them.

You know, I've held women and babies and jewels and money, but nothing will ever feel as good as holding that Cup.

You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

Self-denial and self-discipline, however, will be recognized as the outstanding qualities of a good soldier.

Each year, therefore, a dollar spent on alcoholic beverages has purchased a smaller quantity.

I really believe my greatest service is in the many unwise steps I prevent.
