Sport Quotes

Purposefully exposing young people to increased risks of major brain problems - even death - for sport is surely even more ethically complicated than sending young people into this same neurological danger zone as soldiers Picture Quote #1

But every fool describes, in these bright days, His wondrous journey to some foreign court, And spawns his quarto, and demands your praise,-- Death to his publisher, to him ‘tis sport Picture Quote #1

My job is my sport so I have to make sure that I stay focussed on it. I train almost every day so it takes up a lot of my life and you don’t want to bring any new distractions into your life Picture Quote #1

I think the key is never being satisfied with your skills and you have to constantly learn. I say this all the time, I sound like a broken record, but if you are not getting better in this sport you are getting worse Picture Quote #1

It is fair to say that insofar as sport is taken seriously by those who play it, then to that extent their conduct in play - their ability to deal with loss or victory, their ability to meld strategic thinking and brute force - can be taken as a small-scale model of how they, or others like them, might behave in life Picture Quote #1

Sport is a great equalizer that can build bridges, transcend borders and cultures, and render even the fiercest conflicts temporarily irrelevant Picture Quote #1

Along with my passion for horse breeding, I was a horse racing enthusiast... In 1974 I was elected as a committee member and subsequently as a steward of the Turf Club. I had a burning desire to clean up the sport, which had always carried the stigma of gambling and manipulation Picture Quote #1

Gymnastics, especially in my family, is more than a sport. It’s our life, it’s our careers, it’s our family business Picture Quote #1

The sport of business is the ultimate competition. It’s 7 ÃƒÂ- 24 ÃƒÂ- 365 ÃƒÂ- forever Picture Quote #1

In student government in high school, I learned how to deal with people, and in college I studied Eastern philosophy. I’m also an avid team-sports fan. I think I just blended them all together and came out with a business management philosophy that combines the Eastern ethic with the Western sport concept, basically Picture Quote #1

In sport, as in science, business, and diplomacy, as Scots we understand that we benefit from the deep and diverse partnerships that make up the United Kingdom Picture Quote #1

We have never seen a sport as a business, and we have this great passion for football. QPR are not a trophy asset. If we had wanted a trophy asset, there were more glamorous clubs we could have bought Picture Quote #1

I have several businesses that revolve around fighting: the training centres, the clothing line and all that stuff. I’ll probably be involved in the sport in some way shape or form, and I’ll continue to train and be active and do the things that I love to do Picture Quote #1

I find it fascinating that sport has such a strong connection to success in business. Arguably, C-suite women are some of the most successful women, and more than half of them played at a more advanced level than just the general population of women in business that had sport in their background Picture Quote #1

I think as a 20-year-old you expect life to always be easy. You get given a good hand and the chance to race in Formula One. You think the driver can make the difference, can make up for everything else within the team. But that is not the case. You are racing in such a competitive sport so that doesn’t happen Picture Quote #1

There’s discussion in athletics about how sport - where they say ‘SportsCenter’ has ruined the fundamentals of basketball because it’s - it only applauds dunks and three point shots and blocks, and I think, you know, the cable news has done the same thing for politics Picture Quote #1

Quite frankly, I can’t get enough of soccer. I tell my jingoistic friends in the United States there’s a reason why it is the world’s No. 1 sport. The rest of the planet can’t be wrong Picture Quote #1

Sport that consumed me for over two decades . . . is now gone. Now it’s just me. No pressure, no expectations, no need to be fast, good, strong or to even improve. Yet I can’t let go of this idea that I always need to be more than I am. And it is eating me alive Picture Quote #1

The truth is, when you’re at the track, it was an interesting thing about stock car racing as a sport, is you almost get more out of it watching it on TV Picture Quote #1

The Showdown is a great way to bring attention to these historic Virginia tracks where many NASCAR drivers cut their teeth in stock car racing, including myself. Tracks like South Boston and Langley are the heart of the sport and draw a great crowd to our Showdown events Picture Quote #1

Tennis takes care of everything. It requires agility and quickness to get to the ball, core strength to get power into your shorts and stamina to last for an entire match. In addition to toning your arms and shoulders, it’s a total body workout for your legs and abs, and works your heart and core unlike any other sport Picture Quote #1

Serena and I have done some great career planning, and we’re playing really at the peak of our tennis right now. I think tennis has been a sport where people play this insane schedule from 14 years old, so of course at 26, it’s over. We’ve really paced ourselves Picture Quote #1

No other game combines the wonder of nature with the discipline of sport in such carefully planned ways. A great golf course both frees and challenges a golfer’s mind Picture Quote #1

I think every athlete will tell you no matter what sport you’re in, when you train so hard and when you care so much about doing what you do, there’s a little bit of nerves that come with that. But nerves that won’t prevent you form performing, nerves that, hopefully, allow you to be that much more motivated and inspired to do well Picture Quote #1

I like to catch fish and release them. I probably haven’t killed a fish that I’ve caught in sport fishing for 20 years. No reason to kill it. You know, just take it and release it Picture Quote #1

Fishing largely consists of not catching fish; failure is as much a part of the sport as knee injuries are of football Picture Quote #1

The sport of digging the bait is nearly equal to that of catching the fish, when one’s appetite is not too keen Picture Quote #1

When you’re representing a sport, people are more likely to judge and comment as, unlike other fields, sport permits every viewer to participate to a certain level Picture Quote #1

Essentially, I am a dreamer. I’ve dreamed all my life. When I started, I dreamed I’d be Champion because it is a sport that is all about the people who win the most, and I have a fear of not winning Picture Quote #1

Ever since that day when I was 11 years old, and I wasn’t allowed in a photo because I wasn’t wearing a tennis skirt, I knew that I wanted to change the sport Picture Quote #1
