It's hard to beat a person who never gives up.

How can you beat someone that's already lost everything?

I'm not the kind of person who gives up without a fight.

You don't not want to beat somebody because you're friends with them.

My dad always taught me never to give up in my mind. You can never really beat me. It sounds ridiculous, but I will always come back for you. You can't beat someone who never gives up. I could lose 100 times to you, but I will always get you. I will die trying. This applies not only to swimming but to my life as well.

That's one thing you learn in sports. You don't give up; you fight to the finish.

You just never give up. You do a task to the best of your abilities and beyond.

I don't mind getting beaten, but I hate to lose.

There are more pleasant things to do than beat up people.

Never give up, which is the lesson I learned from boxing. As soon as you learn to never give up, you have to learn the power and wisdom of unconditional surrender, and that one doesn't cancel out the other; they just exist as contradictions. The wisdom of it comes as you get older.
