And this fear that US models are replacing everything else now spills over from the sphere of culture into our two remaining categories: for this process is clearly, at one level, the result of economic domination - of local cultural industries closed down by American rivals.
Fredric Jameson
But I now think what I was doing, in a completely unconscious way, was getting off the turf where my husband and I might be rivals. We were both working in fiction... so I look back and I see that I consciously vacated the contested ground.
Helen Garner
Don't divide the world into "them" and "us." Avoid infatuation with or resentment of the press, the Congress, rivals, or opponents. Accept them as facts. They have their jobs and you have yours.
Donald Rumsfeld
England and France were rivals, not only on the continent, but in the West Indies, in India, and in Europe.
Albert Bushnell Hart
Every major religion today is a winner in the Darwinian struggle waged among cultures, and none ever flourished by tolerating its rivals.

Georg C. Lichtenberg
I lost races because I wanted too much to win them in beating my rivals.
Hermann Maier

Dawn Fraser
I will always remember and we must all remember that Democrats are our political rivals, not our enemies, and they deserve our respect.

Man has made many machines, complex and cunning, but which of them indeed rivals the workings of his heart?
Pablo Casals
Mr. Chamberlain desires to avert the threat to England's peace by making England, in alliance with Germany, stronger than her rivals and so to force them to renounce their hostile intentions against her.
Bernhard von Bulow
Our two biggest rivals had adjusted their whole season to this one aim of beating us. Of course, it is a big compliment that they were so motivated to stop us but it was very tough to face two matches like that so close together. Suddenly three trophies are down to one.
Dennis Bergkamp
Political rivals attacked me. I was savagely beaten. I was kicked in the face and I lost my eye as a result.
Jean-Marie Le Pen
Pride is an admission of weakness; it secretly fears all competition and dreads all rivals.
Fulton J. Sheen
Some of the fans here were not too sure about their club signing a player from their biggest rivals. Fortunately, we had a great season and won the League title for the first time in four years. Now, I think, everyone can say it was good business.
