You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else. Politics is not a game. It is an earnest business.
Play the game for more than you can afford to lose... only then will you learn the game.
War is a game that is played with a smile. If you can't smile, grin. If you can't grin, keep out of the way till you can.
I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.
We didn't lose the game; we just ran out of time.
Some people try to find things in this game that don't exist but football is only two things - blocking and tackling.
There is no room for second place. There is only one place in my game and that is first place. I have finished second twice in my time at Green Bay and I never want to finish second again.
It's not so important who starts the game but who finishes it
Just play. Have fun. Enjoy the game.
Even when I'm old and grey, I won't be able to play it, but I'll still love the game.
I play to win, whether during practice or a real game. And I will not let anything get in the way of me and my competitive enthusiasm to win.
The game is my wife. It demands loyalty and responsibility, and it gives me back fulfillment and peace.
Risk is a part of God's game, alike for men and nations.
If past history was all there was to the game, the richest people would be librarians.
The score never interested me, only the game.
Every fact is related on one side to sensation, and, on the other, to morals. The game of thought is, on the appearance of one of these two sides, to find the other: given the upper, to find the under side.
I think it's wrong that only one company makes the game Monopoly.
I guess there is nothing that will get your mind off everything like golf.
I have never been depressed enough to take up the game, but they say you get so sore at yourself you forget to hate your enemies.
I went to a fight the other night, and a hockey game broke out.

- 12 weapons in total, including the Switch Axe from Monster Hunter 3.
- Great Sword, Long Sword, Sword & Shield, Dual Swords, Hammer, Hunting Horn, Lance, Gunlance, Switch Axe, Light Bowgun, Heavy Bowgun, Bow.
- No Bowgun customization. It's back to the Light and Heavy Bowguns only.
- New attacks for most old weapons; Greatswords and Lances remain unchanged from Monster Hunter 3.
- Gunlance has changed significantly adding new attacks as seen in the trailer. The featured new attack where the hunter cocks the Gunlance, slashes downwards and fires. This seems to use up all the currently loaded shells at once, as in the trailer there are 3 simultaneously explosions in the attack.
- When using the Switch Axe, you can now chain the infinite side swings to the overhead attack; it also gains a new Poison Phial, which is purple in color. [Proof]
- The Switch Axe also gains a new Phial which seems to be a Stamina Reducing Phial which is blue in colour.[1]
- When using Heavy Bowgun, you can now kneel down and then choose from specific ammo-types in your inventory. You can fire these specific Ammo types rapidly and the amount of ammo that the Bowgun can hold will be greatly increased. However, you are unable to move in that position.
- Light Bowguns now use backhops and sidesteps instead of rolling.
- The Bow will gain a new, bluish bottle. It will probably have the stamina reducing effect as the color is similar to the Bowgun Bullet having this effect. [Proof]
- Bows also now have a radius area that indicates where arrow rain will land.
- Bows can use an "arrow rain", which deals impact damage, but has a large delay between shot and impact
- Only nine of these twelve weapons are featured in the demo version; Gunlance, Hunting Horn and Bow are not available.
- A new item appears in the game called a Weapon Ore. The Weapon Ore gives a single boost to your weapon's attack. If you upgrade the weapon, it looses the boost, though you can use another Weapon Ore on the weapon.
- Weapon stats and formulas seem to have been recalculated in order to be directly comparable between different weapon types : the starting Great Sword has an attack power of 50.
- Dual Swords now have a kind of Spirit Bar very identical to Longsword. That Spirit Bar can only be raised while hitting a monster when the Dual Swords are in "Demonization" mode. When it is full that Spirit Bar will start flashing red and white like the Longsword's and it will appear a kind of red aura around the hunter that will disappear when the Spirit Bar becomes empty again. This Spirit Bar will start decreasing unless the hunter hits the monster again with the Dual Swords in "Demonization" mode.
- Hunting Horns have been greatly improved, as Recital mode can be entered in the middle of an attack. The time it takes to play a melody has been greatly decreased as well, and sometimes you will earn notes when you hit an enemy.
