I am constitutionally competent to contest the elections.
Benazir Bhutto
Image
It is imperative to contest all factions for complete victory, so the army is not garrisoned and the profit can be total. This is the law of strategic siege.
Sun Tzu

He changed more times than a baby in a beer-drinking contest.
Scott Adams
Image
Gore will not win a popularity contest, he will not win a personality contest, but he can win an idealogical battle, and he can win a battle of experience.
Susan Estrich
Image
Heat and animosity, contest and conflict, may sharpen the wits, although they rarely do they never strengthen the understanding, clear the perspicacity, guide the judgment, or improve the heart.
Walter Savage Landor

For many observers, a child who has known nothing but war, a child for whom the Kalashnikov is the only way to make a living and for whom the bush is the most welcoming community, is a child lost forever for peace and development. I contest this view. For the sake of these children, it is essential to prove that another life is possible.

When I was six I entered a talent contest. I dyed my hair blond, had a chainsaw and pretended I was Eminem. The old folk weren't expecting that.
Nico Mirallegro
Image
You may be always victorious if you will never enter into any contest where the issue does not wholly depend upon yourself.
Epictetus
Image
You know, I've occasionally tried to watch other shows besides Scrubs, but comparing them is a bit like me competing in the special Olympics. Obviously I would win without contest, but the point is that they are trying their best.
Zach Braff

Art has never been a popularity contest.
James Levine

A presidential campaign may easily degenerate into a mere personal contest, and so lose its real dignity. There is no indispensable man.
Woodrow Wilson
Image
Love does not dwell on how much one receives in return. If there is ever any balance in love, it is in a contest of who can love who more.
Criss Jami

Drawn games are sometimes more scintillating than any conclusive contest.
Savielly Tartakower

They did that little thing on South Park, and they mentioned my name and had a character of me judging a Halloween contest. It was really funny. That made me the coolest aunt on earth.
Tina Yothers
Image
Life is not a popularity contest. Take the hill, but first answer the question: What is my hill?.
Matthew McConaughey

In a physical contest on the field of battle it is allowable to use tactics and strategy, to retreat as well as advance, to have recourse to a ruse as well as open attack but in matters of principle there can be no tactics, there is one straight forward course to follow and that course must be found and followed without swerving to the end.
Terence MacSwiney
Image
If we will be true and faithful to our principles, committed to a life of honesty and integrity, then no king or contest or fiery furnace will be able to compromise us. For the success of the kingdom of God on earth, may we stand as witnesses for Him at all times and in all things, and in all places that we may be in, even until death.
Howard W. Hunter

Why that would be like challenging Bing Crosby to a singing contest,wouldn't it
Ben Hogan

I wouldn't support Limp Bizkit being on some snuff backyard brawling, fighting contest.
Fred Durst
Image
I will support whoever is nominated and named by the party. I, at this time, don't plan to get involved in the contest and let it go forward. I had my own contest, it didn't result in victory, and I will let voters decide what will happen. But I will support the Republican candidate.
Marco Rubio
Image
There are many men who would have done better than I did under the circumstances in which I found myself. If I had never held command, if I had fallen, there were 10,000 behind who would have followed the contest to the end and never surrendered the Union.
Ulysses S. Grant

My child was one of Nature's Tories pitted against a mother who was one of nurture's Lefties: it was no contest.

If you sent me to cover a pie-baking contest on Mother's Day, I'm going to ask dear old Mom why she used artificial sweetener or stole the apples!
