The Ron Atkinson quote on that page ("If Glenn Hoddle said one word to his team at half-time, it was concentration and focus.") reminds me of an utterance due to one of our earlier Vice Presidents, Dan Quayle. During the campaign in 1988, in response to worries about his unsuitability for promotion, should anything happen to his senior running mate, he said (something close to): "If I could sum up my sense of my responsibility in one word, it would be: To be prepared."
