- I can take anyone down at anytime; they can’t take me down; no one can ride or turn me; I can control anyone. – Dan Gable
- When I’d get tired and want to stop, I’d wonder what my next opponent was doing. I’d wonder if he was still working out. I tried to visualize him. When I could see him still working, I’d start pushing myself. When I could see him in the shower, I’d push myself harder. – Dan Gable
- If you’re afraid to fail, you’ll never succeed. – Dan Gable
- Once you’ve wrestled, everything in life is easy. – Dan Gable
- I swear it upon Zeus an outstanding runner cannot be the equal of an average wrestler. – Socrates

- No activity I know is more of a confidence builder and at the same time more ‘humility training’ than wrestling. – Congressman James Leach
- I have a great deal of gratitude for the sport of wrestling for all it’s done for me. I wish that we could measure the type of values that are instilled through the game that transcend to a young man’s academic life, in pursuing his career, his relationships with his wife and his children, and every aspect of life. It’s the gift that keeps on giving. – Billy Baldwin, actor
- I feel more a part of the wrestling community than I feel I belong to the community of arts and letters. Why? Because wrestling requires even more dedication than writing because wrestling represents the most difficult and rewarding objective that I have ever dedicated myself to; because wrestling and wrestling coaches are among the most disciplined and self-sacrificing people I have ever known. – John Irving, writer
- Through wrestling, through the hard work and the sweat, through the victories and the defeats, we learn a great deal about ourselves. Wrestling shows you your limits, your weaknesses, your strengths and, ultimately, you grow because of what it shows you. – J Robinson
- No exercise brings into play all the muscles of the body in a more thorough manner, and none is more interesting than wrestling. He will find no other exercise more valuable in the cultivation of faculties which will help him to success in agility, strength, determination, coolness, and quick exercise of judgement. – Hugh Leonard, Wrestling Coach – New York Athletic Club1897
- This is a sport (wrestling) that has turned many boys into men and many men into leaders. And it is a sport in which you can be a giant regardless of how big you are. – Carl Albert, former Speaker of the House
- The sport of wrestling is a tremendous builder of the values and characteristics which are needed to succeed in any walk of life. Much of what I have managed to achieve in life I owe directly to the years I spent in the wrestling room, as an athlete and a coach. Wrestling is a great educational tool. – Dennis Hastert, former Speaker of the House
- Once you’ve wrestled, everything in life is easy. – Dan Gable
- There are no losers in wrestling, just winners and learners. – Unknown
- Fatigue makes cowards of us all. – Anonymous
- Take a strong wrestler, get them tired, and they aren’t as strong.Take a quick wrestler, get them tired, and they aren’t as quick.Take a technical wrestler, get them tired, and they aren’t as technical.No matter what kind of wrestler, everyone is afraid of getting tired.It’s those who learn to perform when they’re tired that find success.- J. Robinson
