A Quote by Muggsy Bogues

Being able to compete against the best, having success against the best, and to be included with the best - that's something I really relished whenever I got on the court.

What really excited me at the end was the challenge of being the best I can be and prolonging my best level and playing against the best players in the world. But now that I don't have the opportunity to play against the best players in the world when it counts, in front of fans, it doesn't excite me as much.

Steve Nash

In sport, if you want to be the best you have to compete against the best - I would much rather have come tenth and be judged against everyone than come first and be judged against just a few.

Daley Thompson

You want to play against the best - at least I do. I want to go out there and compete against the best players.

Jimmer Fredette

To compete against the best players is something I really enjoy every night.

Mike Conley Jr.

If I win the title, I want to know I was the best guy that year, and to be the best, you've got to go against the best.

Daniel Ricciardo

I learnt since I was a child growing up in a small village in the Czech Republic that I had to be like that to compete, to be the best and then to compete against the best. There has not been a second, a minute, an hour, a day that I have missed because I always wanted to improve.

Pavel Nedved

It's not easy to go out and win and compete and play against the best teams, the best players in the league, and we take that very seriously.

Mike Budenholzer

It's about being the very best you can be. Nothing else matters as long as you're working and striving to be your best. Always compete. It's truly that simple. Find the way to do your best. Compete in everything you do.

Pete Carroll

We compete, not so much against an opponent, but against ourselves. The real test is this: Did I make my best effort on every play?

Bud Wilkinson

For me, Lionel Messi is quite clearly the best player ever. It’s a pleasure to put myself against him and when I finish my career it’s something I can look back on and know I’ve tested myself against the very best.

John Terry

Bad Bunny and I aren't brothers, but we have a good relationship. We compete. We'll compete until the day we die, because he says he's the best, and I say I'm the best. When he releases something big, I have to release something bigger.

Anuel AA

We all started playing football against our best friends, and I can't remember a moment where, because it was my best friend, I did not want to win against him.

Jurgen Klopp

I have played against (Michel) Platini, (Diego) Maradona, (Johan) Cruyff and played with George Best — a lot of big names, but none of them has been able to do what Messi does. Two years ago I said that the best player I played against was Maradona and the best player I have played with was Bestie. But I can now say I have never seen a player as good as Messi. He’s in a league of his own.

John Terry

That was my dream, to compete against the best surfers in the best waves. But as a kid, it all seemed so unattainable. It was this big dream, but deep down I never thought it could really happen. But my parents always believed I could do it, and they helped me get through all the stages and take all the right steps.
