“The best part of competition is that through it we discover what we are capable of - and how much more we can actually do than we ever believed possible.”—@Lifeworthcompetingfor

“When we are in competition with ourselves, and match our todays against our yesterdays, we derive encouragement from past misfortunes and blemishes. Moreover, the competiion, with ourselves leaves unimpaired our benevolence toward our fellow men.”—Eric Hopper
