Best Quotes about Competition
Surely the best way to meet the enemy is head on in the field and not wait till they plunder our very homes.
Goldsmith, Oliver
Most games are lost, not won.
Stengel, Casey
If football taught me anything about business, it is that you win the game one play at a time.
Tarkenton, Fran
I watch a man shoot pool for an hour. If he misses more than one shot I know I can beat him.
Lassiter, Luther
I worked very hard. I felt I could play the game. The only thing that could stop me was myself.
Abbott, Jim
Once you're physically capable of winning a gold medal, the rest is ninety percent mental.
Johnson, Patti
Enjoy the successes that you have, and don't be too hard on yourself when you don't do well. Too many times we beat up on ourselves. Just relax and enjoy it.
Sheehan, Patty
Becoming number one is easier than remaining number one.

For when the One Great Scorer comes to mark against your name, He writes -- not that you won or lost -- but how you played the Game.
Rice, Grantland
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
You must play boldly to win.

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.

This is a tough game. There are times when you've got to play hurt, when you've got to block out the pain.
O'Neal, Shaquille
The game isn't over until it's over.
Berra, Yogi
If you make every game a life and death proposition, you're going to have problems. For one thing, you'll be dead a lot.
Smith, Dean
These are the days when it takes all you've got just to keep up with the losers.
Orpen, Robert
A horse never runs so fast as when he has other horses to catch up and outpace.
Ovid
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
When you fear a foe, fear crushes your strength; and this weakness gives strength to your opponents.
Shakespeare, William
We have a lot of players in their first year. Some of them are also in their last year.
Walsh, Bill
It has meant a lot to me to challenge the best players in the world and to beat them. And it means a lot to me to be out here and fighting for the title and, you know, it hurts not to win it.
Agassi, Andre
Competition is the spice of sports; but if you make spice the whole meal you'll be sick.
Leonard, George
Competition is the whetstone of talent.
Saying
Playing safe is only playing.
Olson, Chuck
I don't psyche myself up. I psyche myself down. I think clearer when I'm not psyched up.
Cauthen, Steve
One cannot play chess if one becomes aware of the pieces as living souls and of the fact that the Whites and the Blacks have more in common with each other than with the players. Suddenly one loses all interest in who will be champion.
Rapoport, Anatol
You must not fight too often with one enemy, or you will teach him all your tricks of war.
Bonaparte, Napoleon
Running for money doesn't make you run fast. It makes you run first.
Jipcho, Ben
A competitor will find a way to win. Competitors take bad breaks and use them to drive themselves just that much harder. Quitters take bad breaks and use them as reasons to give up. It's all a matter of pride.
Lopez, Nancy
Somebody will always break your records. It is how you live that counts.
Campbell, Earl
In this game, by trying to win; you automatically lose.
Ross, Ruth
Focus on competition has always been a formula for mediocrity.
Burrus, Daniel
I ski to win. When the day comes that I can't get myself into a fighting mood anymore, I won't be able to win and I'll stop racing.
Stenmark, Ingemar
Mental toughness is to physical as four is to one.
Knight, Bobby
When I go our on the ice, I just think about my skating. I forget it is a competition.
Witt, Katarina
There is nothing noble in being superior to some other person. The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self.
Proverb, Indian
And what is the greatest number? Number one.
Hume, David
We want to be first; not first if, not first but; but first!
Kennedy, John F.
Men often compete with one another until the day they die; comradeship consists of rubbing shoulders jocularly with a competitor.
Hoagland, Edward
Man is a gaming animal. He must always be trying to get the better in something or other.
Lamb, Charles
Thou shalt not covet; but tradition approves all forms of competition.
Clough, Arthur Hugh
After the game the King and pawn go into the same box.
Proverb, Italian
Competitions are for horse, not artist.
Bartok, Bela
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
The weakness of an enemy forms part of our own strength.
Saying
The person who figures out how to harness the collective genius of his or her organization is going to blow the competition away.
Wriston, Walter
How you respond to the challenge in the second half will determine what you become after the game, whether you are a winner or a loser.
Holtz, Lou
Show me a guy who is afraid to look bad, and I'll show you a guy you can beat every time.
Brock, Lou
