Spurs staged another fightback as they came from behind to clinch a fourth straight win thanks to a stoppage-time strike by Aaron Lennon.
Harry Redknapp's men had come from 2-0 down at Arsenal just a week before to beat their derby rivals 3-2 and they have now come from behind to secure victory five times in the Premier League this season.
Spurs have continued to play entertaining football this term yet Modric insists there is also a new never-say-die attitude running through White Hart Lane.
"It showed again that we have character, great spirit," said the Croatian midfielder.
"We never give up and always fight to the last minute.
"It's good to know that when you are down, you can turn it around.
"We never lose confidence when we're losing, we know we can come back and we've showed that many times. It's good to know we can do that."
Tottenham had fallen behind to a 42nd-minute strike by Martin Skrtel before the Liverpool defender turned a Modric cross into his own net to draw Spurs level.
Lennon then sealed a victory which took Tottenham back up to fifth place, just a point outside the top four.
"It was a great result for us," Modric added.
"We needed to be better in the first half, we were sloppy but we also created chances.
"In the second half we were much, much better and the goal lifted us. We have great confidence. We just need to carry on now."
