Text Quotes
When you strike a blow, do not let your mind dally on it, not concerning yourself with whether or not it is a telling blow; you should strike again and again, over and over, even four or five times. The thing is not to let your opponent even raise his head  (Opponent Quotes) I don’t like to show my emotions at the board, not because they might give something away to an opponent, but because that’s my style: I like to keep it to myself  (Opponent Quotes) In boxing you create a strategy to beat each new opponent, it’s just like chess  (Opponent Quotes) While the coach is entitled to celebrate the team’s victories, there is a manner and a way of doing so without aggravating the opponent  (Opponent Quotes) If your opponent is playing several shots in vain attempts to extricate himself from a bunker, do not stand near him and audibly count his strokes. It would be justifiable homicide if he wound up his pitiable exhibition by applying his niblick to your head  (Opponent Quotes) We compete, not so much against an opponent, but against ourselves. The real test is this: Did I make my best effort on every play?  (Opponent Quotes) I never think that there’s something I can’t do, whether it’s beating my opponent one on one or practicing another hour because something about my game is just not right  (Opponent Quotes) Would you kick an opponent when he was down? Yes, if I thought he might get up  (Opponent Quotes) The great enemy of knowledge is not error, but inertness. All that we want is discussion; and then we are sure to do well, no matter what our blunders may be. One error conflicts with another, each destroys its opponent, and truth is evolved  (Opponent Quotes) A sight game is that I am hurt, but I aim to make you believe I am not even hurt, and with this confidence appearing on my face, I don’t panic, otherwise your opponent will know that you are hurt. That’s the whole art game in boxing  (Opponent Quotes) Man, anytime the ball goes through the basket. It doesn’t matter if it’s a jumper or a drive. Any time the ball goes through the basket, and it’s going through consistently, it’s demoralizing for any opponent  (Opponent Quotes) If you have a strong opponent, a competition is stimulating. I am generally most open to ideas when I have had a bad result. In chess, too, players specialise. This specialty then becomes an entry barrier  (Opponent Quotes) I feel as if I were a piece in a game of chess, when my opponent says of it: That piece cannot be moved  (Opponent Quotes) It’s good to be a little frightened. It’s good to respect your opponent. It keeps you sharp. In the fight game, the head rules the heart. But in the end the heart is the boss  (Opponent Quotes) Rage is the opposite of thought, whoever has put you in this frame of mind has more control over you right now, than you have over yourself. If he is your opponent and you will face him today, you will be defeated  (Opponent Quotes) When I’d get tired and want to stop, I’d wonder what my next opponent was doing. I’d wonder if he was still working out. I’d tried to visualize him. When I could see him working, I’d start pushing myself. When I could see him in the shower, I’d push myself harder  (Opponent Quotes) I believe that good defense embodies seven cardinal principle: reduce the number of your opponent’s shots; force your opponent into low percentage shots; control everything within 18 feet; eliminate second shots; no easy baskets; point the ball on all long shots; and prevent the ball from going into the pivot man  (Opponent Quotes) When you go out on the court whether it be for the championship or just a scrimmage, have confidence that your abilities and what you’ve learned in your drills are better than your opponent’s. This does not mean you should disregard your opponent. Before taking the court for any game, you should do a lot of thinking about what you have to do to beat your opponent and what he must or can do to beat you  (Opponent Quotes) The most difficult thing about an easy match is to make a weak opponent play bad football  (Opponent Quotes) Because the demands on the goalie are mostly mental, it means that for a goalie the biggest enemy is himself. Not a puck, not a opponent, not a quirk of size or style. The stress and anxiety he feels when he plays, the fear of failing, the fear of being embarrassed, the fear of being physically hurt, all symptoms of his position, in constant ebb and flow, but never disappearing. The successful goalie understands these neuroses, accept them, and put them under control. The unsuccessful goalie is distracted by them, his mind in knots. His body quickly follows  (Opponent Quotes) In order to achieve victory you must place yourself in your opponent’s skin. If you don’t understand yourself, you will lose one hundred percent of the time. If you understand yourself, you will win fifty percent of the time. If you understand yourself and your opponent, you will win one hundred percent of the time  (Opponent Quotes) The mind, if slackened even a little, will cause defeat, the same as fearing the opponent will make you unable to use full strength  (Opponent Quotes) You learn to accept defeat graciously in golf. Unlike other sports, the game itself is a constant opponent. It never stops. A golfer is fortunate to win a few times. We spend our whole lives trying to conquer something, and we lose a lot more than we win  (Opponent Quotes) Poincaré was a vigorous opponent of the theory that all mathematics can be rewritten in terms of the most elementary notions of classical logic; something more than logic, he believed, makes mathematics what it is  (Opponent Quotes) We are at a good level. Our secret is that we play the same way against each opponent  (Opponent Quotes) Remember the basic rule. Make friends with your caddie and the game will make friends with you. How true this is. It is easy to arrange that your guest opponent shall be deceived in to undertipping his caddie at the end of the morning round, so that the news gets round among the club employees that your opponent is a no good, and the boys will gang up against him  (Opponent Quotes) To be successful in anything, a person must always want to be better, not only than your opponent but better than your last performance. Done correctly, being competitive is a wonderful way to always try to be a better person by learning from your mistakes and capitalizing on your successes  (Opponent Quotes) They are a very tough opponent, and they took us the first game. So we want our revenge, and we are going to go right back after them hard. We are really looking forward to getting after them  (Opponent Quotes) I don’t want to give my opponent the satisfaction of watching me celebrate, which would make it look like a big deal that I beat him  (Opponent Quotes) If you go too far in fantasy and break the string of logic, and become nonsensical, someone will surely remind you of your dereliction... Pound for pound, fantasy makes a tougher opponent for the creative person  (Opponent Quotes)
