Every driver is different, so I just hope whatever I do is going to be good enough, because it’s not that I just want to be with McLaren. I want to win with McLaren.
Lando NorrisWhen you are in any contest, you should work as if there were – to the very last minute – a chance to lose it. This is battle, this is politics, this is anything.
Dwight D. EisenhowerI think the high-tech industry is used to developing new things very quickly. It’s the Silicon Valley way of doing business: You either move very quickly and you work hard to improve your product technology, or you get destroyed by some other company.
Elon MuskSerious sport is war minus the shooting.
George OrwellI certainly would not like to end up in a tie-up with Ms. Rousey.
Conor McGregorEven the best and biggest teams in the world do not reach finals of tournaments.
Sunil ChhetriIf the battle for civilization comes down to the wimps versus the barbarians, the barbarians are going to win.
Thomas SowellWe, we – as I say, we go in and shake up other industries and I think, you know, we do it differently and I think that industries are not quite the same as a result of Virgin attacking the market.
Richard BransonMy goal is to be number one in MMA.
Conor McGregorAmbition must be made to counteract ambition.
James MadisonWithout sounding biased, 70 days of football is not enough. Even if Messi plays 70 days he cannot be in the national team. You need to play around the year to be in contention for the national team.
Sunil ChhetriIt’s rule number one, really – beating your teammate.
Lando NorrisMy first win feels better than a draw!
Jurgen KloppSpaceX has the potential of saving the U.S. government $1 billion a year. We are opposed to creating an entrenched monopoly with no realistic means for anyone to compete.
Elon MuskI’m so fast that last night I turned off the light switch in my hotel room and was in bed before the room was dark.
Muhammad AliIt has always been my private conviction that any man who puts his intelligence up against a fish and loses had it coming.
John SteinbeckObviously everybody, if you’re playing in the league, you’ve got to have somewhat of an ego about how you play the game.
Stephen CurryWe’re very focused on making News Feed really good, making our photos experience really good, making messaging really good, and creating great location apps. That’s the nature of a platform business of our scale. Most companies that are relevant to us will have some overlaps in some competitive way.
Mark ZuckerbergIt is necessary for me to establish a winner image. Therefore, I have to beat somebody.
Richard M. NixonAs long as I am playing competitive football I am happy.
Sunil ChhetriHip hop has always been braggin‘ and boasting and ‚I’m better at you than this‘ and ‚I’m better at you than that.‘
EminemMarathon running, like golf, is a game for players, not winners. That is why Callaway sells golf clubs and Nike sells running shoes. But running is unique in that the world’s best racers are on the same course, at the same time, as amateurs, who have as much chance of winning as your average weekend warrior would scoring a touchdown in the NFL.
Hunter S. ThompsonEventually, all companies are replaced.
Bill GatesI’d love to go into WWE and have a real knock and see what’s what.
Conor McGregorWorking with a lot of people at the same time is a task. I really like making stuff and getting stuff done. One of the things I really liked about Facebook was that I could always move so quickly. I wrote the original application in, like, nine days at the end of January.
Mark ZuckerbergToo much TV hurts movies.
Elvis PresleyToday, if you invent a better mousetrap, the government comes along with a better mouse.
Ronald ReaganHe shines in the second rank, who is eclipsed in the first.
VoltaireThe seven-inch tablets are tweeners: too big to compete with a smartphone, and too small to compete with an iPad.
Steve JobsEven though I had won in other categories, I didn’t have any expectations when I came into F1. Qualifying fifth, finishing sixth? I didn’t expect it.
Lando NorrisThere is something special which rides on a game between Liverpool and United.
Jurgen KloppAnd while the law of competition may be sometimes hard for the individual, it is best for the race, because it ensures the survival of the fittest in every department.
Andrew CarnegieThere are some singers that know exactly when to go, and others hang on much too long and that is the same, that is the same with judges.
Ruth Bader GinsburgBattle is the most magnificent competition in which a human being can indulge. It brings out all that is best; it removes all that is base. All men are afraid in battle. The coward is the one who lets his fear overcome his sense of duty. Duty is the essence of manhood.
George S. PattonThe true competitors, though, are the ones who always play to win.
Tom BradyFolks don’t like to have somebody around knowing more than they do.
Harper LeeI watched the Indy 500, and I was thinking that if they left earlier they wouldn’t have to go so fast.
Steven WrightLike getting into a bleeding competition with a blood bank.
Richard BransonOften people become our friend or follower with an undercurrent of resentment in our having more success than they have. They secretly desire the opportunity to take us down a notch; they have a nose for any misstep on our part they can exploit.
Robert GreeneAutomotive franchise laws were put in place decades ago to prevent a manufacturer from unfairly opening stores in direct competition with an existing franchise dealer that had already invested time, money and effort to open and promote their business.
Elon MuskI am sure as everyone knows that I am not the happiest if I don’t do a good job in qualifying or the race.
Lando NorrisIf you are surrounded by your competition and you are outworking these people, outmaneuvering these people, it’s hard not to let your confidence take over. It just builds and builds and builds.
Conor McGregorIf you win two games, one game or three games, you can still say it’s luck. But when you win a championship over 18 games, it’s not luck.
Sunil ChhetriThese young guys are playing checkers. I’m out there playing chess.
Kobe BryantI find capitalism repugnant. It is filthy, it is gross, it is alienating… because it causes war, hypocrisy and competition.
Fidel CastroWe are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values. For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people.
John F. KennedyCelerity is never more admired than by the negligent.
CleopatraWe all started playing football against our best friends, and I can’t remember a moment where, because it was my best friend, I did not want to win against him.
Jurgen KloppIt obviously bothers people when Real Madrid win. It makes them jealous. There isn’t a level playing field.
Cristiano RonaldoThe thing that’s been really surprising about the evolution of Facebook is – I think then, and I think now – that if we didn’t do this, someone else would have done it.
Mark ZuckerbergIn war, you win or lose, live or die – and the difference is just an eyelash.
Douglas MacArthurOnce people are aware of your presence, and perhaps vaguely intrigued, you need to stir their interest before it settles on someone else.
Robert GreeneJust as I wanted to outdo everyone when I played, I had to outdo everyone when we were out on the town.
George BestThe victor belongs to the spoils.
F. Scott FitzgeraldWhen I was playing, there were always lots of teams in contention for the league – Arsenal, Manchester City, Liverpool, Leeds. Every week was a big game and a big battle.
George BestI don’t like Los Angeles. The people are awful and terribly shallow, and everybody wants to be famous but nobody wants to play the game. I’m from New York. I will kill to get what I need.
Lady GagaWinning the title in England is the biggest challenge of them all.
Jurgen KloppAbove anything else, I hate to lose.
Jackie RobinsonI enjoy competition. I enjoy challenges. If a challenge is in front of me and it appeals to me, I will go ahead and conquer it.
Conor McGregorSome people take defeat and losses a certain way. You see how some fighters take losses.
