Famous quotes containing the word contest:
“Weapons are an important factor in war, but not the decisive factor; it is people, not things, that are decisive. The contest of strength is not only a contest of military and economic power, but also a contest of human power and morale. Military and economic power is necessarily wielded by people.”
—Mao Zedong (18931976)
“It is odd but agitation or contest of any kind gives a rebound to my spirits and sets me up for a time.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (17881824)
“The contest ends at midnight tonight
But you can submit again, and again.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
