Competitive Quotes

Imagine this: You are lounging in a nightclub when a beautiful dame walks in and even before you know, you find yourself clubbed against a roomful of men vying for the lady’s attention. You strut up to her and offer to buy her a drink, but even before you can place your bid, your friend walks away with the chick, and all you are left with is “I’ll get you” kind of glowers. However, this is only one instance. Competition is one thing that is deep-rooted in all of us and all it takes is a bit of challenge to ignite that competitive streak in us. A man would compete for almost anything - luxury, love, jobs, sport, ego and almost everything under the sun. Nevertheless, most importantly he competes to win. If you are one of those ‘never say die’ kind of a person who loves to play hard to get your game, then reading these competitive quotes should set you in a win-win situation. Check out these competitive quotes and get inspired.
