In the end it all comes down to talent. You can talk all you want about intangibles, I just don't know what that means. Talent makes winners, not intangibles. Can nice guys win? Sure, nice guys can win - if they're nice guys with a lot of talent. Nice guys with a little talent finish fourth, and nice guys with no talent finish last.

Sandy Koufax

It is not true that nice guys finish last. Nice guys are winners before the game even starts.

Mort Walker

Edward Dyer

Last guys don't finish nice.

Saul Alinsky

Nice guys finish last.

Leo Durocher

Robert Kiyosaki

Basically, nice guys can finish last.

Lee Meriwether

Win any way as long as you can get away with it. Nice guys finish last.

Leo Durocher

It is decidedly not true that "nice guys finish last," as that highly original American baseball philosopher, Leo Durocher, was alleged to have said.

Alan Greenspan

There are always more questions. Science as a process is never complete. It is not a foot race, with a finish line.... People will always be waiting at a particular finish line: journalists with their cameras, impatient crowds eager to call the race, astounded to see the scientists approach, pass the mark, and keep running. It's a common misunderstanding, he said. They conclude there was no race. As long as we won't commit to knowing everything, the presumption is we know nothing.

Barbara Kingsolver

Mitt Romney is a nice guy. But, we know where nice guys finish in politics.

Mark McKinnon

For most part, the rule of thumb is pretty much you're going to race guys hard the last quarter of the race and for sure the last run of the day. You're still going to give and take until that last pit stop.
