Sport Quotes

I was fortunate enough to have baseball to teach me the values relative to success. The sport gifted me with leadership and team building skills that translate in a relatable way in the world Picture Quote #1

Chess will always be in the doldrums as a spectator sport while a draw is given equal mathematical value as a decisive result Picture Quote #1

There is a terrific apprehension among some people that blacks will take over the sport... It will create problems because their behavior, speech and dress is just a completely different culture Picture Quote #1

Wrecks are going to happen in this business, that’s just a risk of the sport. If you can’t keep from worrying about it, then you’re in the wrong line of work Picture Quote #1

If we are to elevate the game of chess to a popular sport, grandmasters must become gladiators, otherwise the game will languish on the periphery, a voice crying in the wilderness, condemned to live and die on a cold arctic shore Picture Quote #1

There is no physical punishment in chess; suffering goes on inside the mind. You defend a bad position for hours, you suffer. You lose, you suffer like in any other sport. Suffering euphoria comes when the opponent blunders in a winning position, but it is undeserved Picture Quote #1

I think boxing is an incredible sport and I would like to see it really become regulated because I think it could bring back a lot of the past Picture Quote #1

Boxing is a mental sport. Think of a prizefight as a chess game of mind and body, and you are a little closer to it than if you compare it to a bloody brawl in an alley Picture Quote #1

Bowmen bend their bows when they wish to shoot: unbrace them when the shooting is over. Were they kept always strung they would break and fail the archer in time of need. So it is with men. If they give themselves constantly to serious work, and never indulge awhile in pastime or sport, they lose their senses and become mad Picture Quote #1

Like any sport, if you can clinch it sooner, clinch it sooner. It just makes the celebration that much sweeter Picture Quote #1

The sport to which I owe so much has undergone profound changes, but it’s still baseball. Kids still imitate their heroes on playgrounds. Fans still ruin expensive suits going after foul balls that cost five dollars. Hitting streaks still make the network news and hot dogs still taste better at the ballpark than at home Picture Quote #1

We ought to ban hunting, I suggest, if there isn’t a purpose other than sport and fun. That should be against the law. It’s time now Picture Quote #1

It is great to be a part of the whole skating family, and it makes me feel ecstatic that my name will be among the greats of the sport Picture Quote #1

The tennis ball doesn’t know how old I am. The ball doesn’t know if I’m a man or a woman or if I come from a communist country or not. Sport has always broken down these barriers Picture Quote #1

Rowing is a sport for dreamers. As long as you put in the work, you can own the dream Picture Quote #1

Before I had children I always wondered whether their births would be, for me, like the ultimate in gym class failures. And I discovered instead... that I’d finally found my sport Picture Quote #1

With a vegan diet you always have energy, so much that sometimes I have trouble sleeping at night. You feel light. You don’t feel bulky or heavy. This would benefit any athlete in any sport Picture Quote #1

Marathoning is a metaphor for life, so there are a lot of parallels you can draw. I tell people to follow your dream, follow your heart, follow your passion, run your own race and believe in yourself. I think anybody who wants to succeed has to have passion. My love for this sport, you can’t instill it in someone else Picture Quote #1

The female body is a masterpiece. Everyone likes to look at the female body, especially in dynamic, athletic sport Picture Quote #1

If nobody talks about books, if they are not discussed or somehow contended with, literature ceases to be a conversation, ceases to be dynamic. Most of all, it ceases to be intimate. It degenerates into a monologue or a mutter. An unreviewed book is a struck bell that gives no resonance. Without reviews, literature would be oddly mute in spite of all those words on all those pages of all those books. Reviewing makes of reading a participant sport, not a spectator sport Picture Quote #1

I actually love pressure. I loved playing sport at school in front of a crowd; I love being on stage in front of a big audience. I buzz off that Picture Quote #1

We play a tough game. If people want to whinge, they can go to a different sport. It’s part of the game, it’s what I love about it... and I’d hate to see it go Picture Quote #1

Those of us who stayed were younger, more tractable. Less sure of ourselves socially and intellectually, we gave ourselves to the sport with little idea of what we could give or receive Picture Quote #1

Rowing is an absurdly simple sport. I can easily guide a beginner throught the right technical motions. The difficulty arises when the beginner attempts to repeat those motions on a bumpy race course, at 40 strokes a minute, with his heart rate zooming, and an opponent charging up his stern Picture Quote #1

Rowing is such a fine sport. Everyone goes backward, and the leader can see his opponents as they struggle in vain Picture Quote #1

Once one is beyond a certain level of commitment to the sport, life begins to seem an allegory of rowing rather than rowing an allegory of life Picture Quote #1

Any team sport, there are certain team targets and those targets should always be in the forefront Picture Quote #1

Boxing is an all year round sport. You never know when they’re going to call you, so you got to stay ready Picture Quote #1

Cycling isn’t a game, it’s a sport. Tough, hard and unpitying, and it requires great sacrifices. One plays football, or tennis, or hockey. One doesn’t play at cycling Picture Quote #1

Bodybuilding is not just a sport; it’s a way of life. If every aspect of your life is not focused on making the sacrifices necessary to build your best physique, you will ultimately fail and never reach your full potential Picture Quote #1
