There is always room for losers in the football business. They are the mother’s milk of gambling, and why not? Somebody has to do it, or there won’t be any winners.
Hunter S. ThompsonThe ‚Pro-Sim‘ is pretty much the best simulator you can buy, because of the steering motor and the pedals. The force feedback we get through the steering is pretty much exactly the same as what we get in the actual car in terms of how heavy it is.
Lando NorrisRunning taught me valuable lessons. In cross-country competition, training counted more than intrinsic ability, and I could compensate for a lack of natural aptitude with diligence and discipline. I applied this in everything I did.
Nelson MandelaKeeping score is for games, not friendships.
John C. MaxwellMy goal is to be number one in MMA.
Conor McGregorWhen you are fitted in a racing car and you race to win, second or third place is not enough.
Ayrton SennaTo make America the greatest is my goal, so I beat the Russian and I beat the Pole. And for the U.S.A. won the medal of gold. The Greeks said, ‚You’re better than the Cassius of old.‘
Muhammad AliIf you have 50 different plug types, appliances wouldn’t be available and would be very expensive. But once an electric outlet becomes standardized, many companies can design appliances, and competition ensues, creating variety and better prices for consumers.
Bill GatesHow you played in yesterday’s game is all that counts.
Jackie RobinsonI think right now it’s a battle for the mindshare of developers and for the mindshare of customers, and right now iPhone and Android are winning that battle.
Steve JobsWe came up with TDE. As competitive as rap is, and as much as we’re trying to exceed the standards we set for ourselves, we take their wins as our wins, too.
Nipsey HussleI’ve found that men I’ve dated who are in the same business can be really competitive. I’ve found a great group of girlfriends in the same business who aren’t competitive, but a few times guys have started comparing careers and it has been… challenging.
Taylor SwiftDuke is an ugly word in Kentucky. Nothing in the world compares to the joy of beating those hateful swine from Duke.
Hunter S. ThompsonI’m loving my role as a McLaren Young Driver, spending time in the simulator at the McLaren Technology Centre and attending some Grands Prix with the team.
Lando NorrisA good boxing competition gives one the sight of fine men in their prime, trained to the ounce, showing the highest skill, pluck and endurance in carrying out their attack and defence under strict rules of fair play and good temper.
Robert Baden-PowellSome people think literature is high culture and that it should only have a small readership. I don’t think so… I have to compete with popular culture, including TV, magazines, movies and video games.
Haruki MurakamiIf you are a small company taking on a big company, you need to have a sense of humor.
Richard BransonIf all my bridge coach ever told me was that I was ‚satisfactory,‘ I would have no hope of ever getting better. How would I know who was the best? How would I know what I was doing differently?
Bill GatesThe Premier League is one of the most difficult in the world. There’s five, six, or seven clubs that can be the champions. Only one can win, and all the others are disappointed and live in the middle of disaster.
Jurgen KloppPeople just don’t understand how obsessed I am with winning.
Kobe BryantIn an individual sport, yes, you have to win titles. Baseball’s different. But basketball, hockey? One person can control the tempo of a game, can completely alter the momentum of a series. There’s a lot of great individual talent.
Kobe BryantA market is never saturated with a good product, but it is very quickly saturated with a bad one.
Henry FordI’m a fighter, I’m a winner, and I’m not interested in just battling my team-mate for the back of the grid.
Lando NorrisWhat we face may look insurmountable. But I learned something from all those years of training and competing. I learned something from all those sets and reps when I didn’t think I could lift another ounce of weight. What I learned is that we are always stronger than we know.
Arnold SchwarzeneggerWithout 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 ChhetriSectional football games have the glory and the despair of war, and when a Texas team takes the field against a foreign state, it is an army with banners.
John SteinbeckThe battlefield is a scene of constant chaos. The winner will be the one who controls that chaos, both his own and the enemies.
Napoleon BonaparteOne is lucky to be born in a place where no one is doing it, because then you can say, ‚Well, obviously I can write better than everyone else in high school.‘ You have no idea of the competition.
Alice MunroIt’s OK for China to invent cancer drugs that cure patients in the United States. We want them to catch up. But as the leader, we want to keep setting a very, very high standard. We don’t want them to catch up because we’re slowing down or, even worse, going into reverse.
Bill GatesI played a great horse yesterday! It took seven horses to beat him.
Henny YoungmanIf I’d married someone in show business, there’d be too much competition.
Dolly PartonIt’s what counts, isn’t it, on the Sunday, rather than pre-season testing. If you lock up, you do a little mistake, it’s nothing, but if you do it on Sunday, you lose a place or you have to box for a flat spot or something like that. It’s a much bigger problem.
Lando NorrisWhat is Champions League level? I saw a lot of rubbish games at Champions League level.
Jurgen KloppMy cash cows, the slick magazines, were put out of business by TV.
Kurt VonnegutEvery successful businessman will have experienced set-backs and failures – they’re lying if they say they haven’t. Virgin has had some tremendously successful businesses and some that have not quite worked out. Virgin Cola springs to mind – the product wasn’t distinct enough from Coca-Cola.
Richard BransonJust as I wanted to outdo everyone when I played, I had to outdo everyone when we were out on the town.
George BestAs long as I am playing competitive football I am happy.
Sunil ChhetriTo me, being the best means proving it in different countries and championships.
Cristiano RonaldoWe’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 ZuckerbergLife is nothing but a competition to be the criminal rather than the victim.
Bertrand RussellMine is better than ours.
Benjamin FranklinAnd 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 CarnegieI can hold my own when it comes to burping. I’ve got a good feeling that I could win a championship.
Dwayne JohnsonYou must keep raising this game to higher and higher levels, as on the pool table – mastering eventually the psychological angles. Your playing is a pleasure, all the way to the end, to death, when the game is over.
Robert GreeneThere have been so many great players that I’ve played with, that I’ve played against over the years.
Tom BradyIn this industry, there’s a lot of cases of being a competitor in one way, but you’re often a customer and a vendor in another way. It’s not atypical in aerospace. Actually, it’s not that atypical in a lot of industries.
Jeff BezosI 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 NorrisDo your work with your whole heart, and you will succeed – there’s so little competition.
Elbert HubbardThe fundamental defect of fathers, in our competitive society, is that they want their children to be a credit to them.
Bertrand RussellWhenever you do something, people try to re-do it and do a better version, especially if they’re in another country.
George LucasI was so used to going out and winning state championships and playing in the postseason.
LeBron JamesEight years ago, you may remember Hillary and I were rivals for the Democratic nomination. We battled for a year and a half. Let me tell you, it was tough, because Hillary was tough. I was worn out. She was doing everything I was doing, but just like Ginger Rogers, it was backwards in heels.
Barack ObamaI’m proud of ‚Stop Making Sense,‘ but it’s a little bit of an albatross; I can’t compete with it, but I can’t ignore it either.
David ByrneThe female loves to play man against man. And if she is in a position to do it, there is not one who will resist.
Charles BukowskiApple’s market share is bigger than BMW’s or Mercedes’s or Porsche’s in the automotive market. What’s wrong with being BMW or Mercedes?
Steve JobsWhen you can whip any man in the world, you never know peace.
Muhammad AliCompetition is not only the basis of protection to the consumer, but is the incentive to progress.
Herbert HooverWinning the title in England is the biggest challenge of them all.
Jurgen KloppAmerica and Islam are not exclusive and need not be in competition. Instead, they overlap, and share common principles of justice and progress, tolerance and the dignity of all human beings.
Barack ObamaI 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 Gaga
