Best Quotes about Competition

1.
After the game the King and pawn go into the same box.
Proverb, Italian

Sayers, Gayle

4.
So long as the system of competition in the production and exchange of the means of life goes on, the degradation of the arts will go on; and if that system is to last for ever, then art is doomed, and will surely die; that is to say, civilization will die.
Morris, William

5.
I consider myself one of a very small handful of drivers in the world that are top drivers. The best one? I don't think anybody can say they're the best one because, from one week to the next, you can be on form or off form a little bit.
Mansell, Nigel

6.

Most games are lost, not won.
Stengel, Casey

8.
Man is a gaming animal. He must always be trying to get the better in something or other.
Lamb, Charles

There is nothing noble in being superior to some other person. The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self.
Proverb, Indian

10.
Once you're physically capable of winning a gold medal, the rest is ninety percent mental.
Johnson, Patti

11.
The price which society pays for the law of competition, like the price it pays for cheap comforts and luxuries, is great; but the advantages of this law are also greater still than its cost -- for it is to this law that we owe our wonderful material development, which brings improved conditions in its train. But, whether the law be benign or not, we must say of it: It is here; we cannot evade it; no substitutes for it have been found; and while the law may be sometimes hard for the individual, it is best for the race, because it ensures the survival of the fittest in every department.
Carnegie, Andrew

12.
I won it, at least five million times. Men who were stronger, bigger and faster than I was could have done it, but they never picked up a pole, and never made the feeble effort to pick their legs off the ground and get over the bar.
Richards, Bob

13.
Playing safe is only playing.
Olson, Chuck

14.
I worked very hard. I felt I could play the game. The only thing that could stop me was myself.
Abbott, Jim

15.
I don't care how good you play, you can find somebody who can beat you, and I don't care how bad you play, you can find somebody you can beat.
Penick, Harvey

16.
Thou shalt not covet; but tradition approves all forms of competition.
Clough, Arthur Hugh

17.
These are the days when it takes all you've got just to keep up with the losers.
Orpen, Robert

18.
The key to any game is to use your strengths and hide your weaknesses.
Westphal, Paul

19.
When you fear a foe, fear crushes your strength; and this weakness gives strength to your opponents.
Shakespeare, William

20.
I don't compete with other discus throwers. I compete with my own history.
Oerter, Al

21.
When the game is over it is really just beginning.
Kramer, Jerry

22.
I believe in rules. Sure I do. If there weren't any rules, how could you break them?
Durocher, Leo

23.
You must not fight too often with one enemy, or you will teach him all your tricks of war.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

24.
The medals don't mean anything and the glory doesn't last. It's all about your happiness. The rewards are going to come, but my happiness is just loving the sport and having fun performing.
Kersee, Jackie Joyner

Falcon, Joe

33.
Our life is not really a mutual helpfulness; but rather, it's fair competition cloaked under due laws of war; it's a mutual hostility.
Carlyle, Thomas

34.
Every time you go out on the ice, there are slight flaws. You can always think of something you should have done better. These are the things you must work on.
Hamill, Dorothy
