“Competition reduces people's creativity. And the trend of copying is increasing. Ungratefulness comes from comparison, and comparison comes from competition.”

Umair Ahmad (1997) Businessman

Speaking to journalist Iftikhar Ahmad (December 2017) as quoted in Media Imperialism in India and Pakistan (2019) by Farooq Sulehria, p. 59

“Competition is a by-product of productive work, not its goal. A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others.”

Ayn Rand (1905–1982) Russian-American novelist and philosopher

The Ayn Rand Letter (1971–1976)

“A society's competitive advantage will come not from how well its schools teach the multiplication and periodic tables, but from how well they stimulate imagination and creativity.”

Albert Einstein (1879–1955) German-born physicist and founder of the theory of relativity

“In some form or other the rivalry of men will continue to be employed as an instrument of the general welfare. It is not important that the arrangements which currently are set down as the competitive system will endure. It is important that the spirit of competition shall be enhanced and not impaired. There must be an outlet for the creative urge, free play for the dynamic drive. In a society, as in the physical world, motion is inseparable from life.”

Walton Hale Hamilton (1881–1958) Yale Law Professor

Walton H. Hamilton (1957), The politics of industry, p. 168-69; as cited in: Arnold, Thurman. " Walton Hale Hamilton https://www.jstor.org/stable/794455." The Yale Law Journal 68.3 (1959): 399-400.

“Creativity is not limited to people practising one of the traditional forms of art, and even in the case of artists, creativity is not confined to the exercise of their art. Each one of us has a creative potential, which is hidden by competitiveness and success-aggression. To recognize, explore and develop this potential is the task of the School. Creation – whether it be a painting, sculpture, symphony or novel – involves not merely talent, intuition, powers of imagination and application, but also the ability to shape material that could be expanded to other socially relevant spheres.”

Joseph Beuys (1921–1986) German visual artist
