all the second place quotes
No second place, second place is first loser, on and on. I took them to heart long ago. I never came to a competition trying for second place or said I couldn't beat so and so. I lost some but I never ceded first place to anyone.

An anonymous 320 lb NFL offensive tackle was asked why he had twin 100 HP engines on the back of his 17' fishing boat.
His reply:
"When you hook a bass at 100 mph, it takes the fight right out of 'em."
Pool translation:
Unless you're laying down, punch 'em square in the nose from the git-go.
