Business is a team sport.

Business is war! Its leaders are strategic commanders, who boldly snatch victory from the jaws of defeat - and who perform other acts of derring-do. This kind of talk sounds great in the boardroom, and, for that matter, in the bookstore, where dozens of authors counsel would-be corporate warriors.

For capitalism, war and peace are business and nothing but business.

There are similarities between business and sport, in the pressures involved and in the fitness aspect too.

The business of America is business.

Sports is like a war without the killing.

Professional sports is a business.

War is a racket. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives.

Baseball is a game, yes. It is also a business. But what is most truly is is disguised combat. For all its gentility, its almost leisurely pace, baseball is violence under wraps.

Business is other people's money.
