Quotations regarding 'Competition'

Choose a letter: 
The great principle of Western society is that competition rules here as it rules in everything else. The best man - that is to say, the strongest and cleverest - is likely to get the best woman, in the sense of the most beautiful person.
Lafcadio Hearn, Japanese Author (1850-1904)
No, there's not much competition between puppeteers in general because everybody's working their own style.
Jim Henson, American Entertainer (1936-1990)
I've never felt any sense of competition with anybody, and we're all friends; we're all good friends.
Jim Henson, American Entertainer (1936-1990)
Value is consequently the necessary theoretical starting point whence we can elucidate the peculiar phenomenon of prices resulting from capitalist competition.
Rudolf Hiferding, -
As soon, however, as capitalist competition has definitively established the equal rate of profit, that rate becomes the starting point for the calculations of the capitalists in the investment of capital in newly-created branches of production.
Rudolf Hiferding, -
The praise of ancient authors proceeds not from the reverence of the dead, but from the competition and mutual envy of the living.
Thomas Hobbes, English Philosopher (1588-1679)
The architect, Peter Arens who is the monstrous carbuncle architect, not merely did his design which had won a public competition never get built but his practice suffered financially for some years.
Anthony Holden, British Journalist (1947-  )
If you're not making mistakes, you're not taking risks, and that means you're not going anywhere. The key is to make mistakes faster than the competition, so you have more changes to learn and win.
John W. Holt, Jr., -
Competition is not only the basis of protection to the consumer, but is the incentive to progress.
Herbert Hoover, American President (1874-1964)
Do your work with your whole heart, and you will succeed - there's so little competition.
Elbert Hubbard, American Writer (1859-1915)
The stadiums are like none I've ever seen. I think there must have been some strong competition nationally between Korea and Japan to make the best facilities because they are very well designed.
Lamar Hunt, American Entertainer (1932-  )
We've outpaced Japan and Europe in creating new jobs, but there's major competition from India and China. It's not enough to make income tax cuts permanent.
Ernest Istook, American Politician (1950-  )
The US constitution's First Amendment rights only cover Americans, but I believe that in a democracy the competition of ideas and free speech should combat beliefs that it does not agree with - more speech and debate, not censorship.
Joichi Ito, Japanese Businessman (1966-  )
Whereas there's a wealth of galleries in Australia, everyone's got a gallery in Australia or wants your work. Because the art scene is smaller in Indonesia, there's not so much competition.
Andrew Jack, -
I kinda see everyone as competition. I'm a very competitive person. But I think that's good. Competition is great. And as long as it's friendly and not a malicious thing, then I think it's cool.
Janet Jackson, American Musician (1966-  )
In Europe, architects consider themselves artists. They think they're special when they win a competition.
Helmut Jahn, Architect (1940-  )
The only competition worthy a wise man is with himself.
Anna Jameson, British Writer (1794-1860)
We have a lot of rule changes. I am part of the competition committee. We spent a lot time evaluating the game, how do we make the game better for our fans.
Ron Jaworski, American Athlete (1951-  )
The Christian market has less competition and lower standards.
Jerry B. Jenkins, American Novelist (1949-  )
There are two powers in the world; one is the sword and the other is the pen. There is a great competition and rivalry between the two. There is a third power stronger than both, that of the women.
Muhammad Ali Jinnah, Pakistani Politician (1876-1948)
