Dan Marino Quotes
«I'm very competitive and I let my emotions show. Most of the time what you see is me being upset with myself. I expect to be almost perfect, but I'm human.

«The scoreboard can't make you a loser. If you walk off the field with your head up, you don't lose. You don't hang your head for nobody.

Nobody can make you a loser.»

«As a team, you need to come from behind every once in awhile just to do it. Good for the attitude. It makes it exciting. And when everybody knows you have to throw it... that makes it fun too.»

«I'm a very happy man. In everyday life, just walking around, I'm a fairly pleasant person to be around most of the time. Basically, I'm pretty mellow. Really, the only time I ever get upset is when I'm playing football. When things aren't going right or something, that's when I get the most upset.»
