A scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it.

An important scientific innovation rarely makes its way by gradually winning over and converting its opponents . . . Its opponents gradually die out and the growing generation is familiar with the idea from the beginning.

Hamas, the opponents of Arafat, the opponents of peace, urged a boycott of the election, and yet there was an 85 percent turnout where Hamas is supposed to be strong. Isn't that really quite incredible?

Democrats always like to brag that their guys are smarter than the opponents and Republicans always like to brag that their guys are more moral than the opponents. But if you're looking for morals in politics you're looking for bananas in the cheese department.

Singling out political opponents for working against the ruling party is precisely the tactic of every tyrannical government from Red China to Venezuela. The first step in the process is creating unfounded public suspicion of political opponents, followed by arresting and jailing any who continue speaking against the regime.

The opponents of my budget propose taking $200 million out of our classrooms and instead spending it on a larger school employee pay raise. Our focus should be on making sure our children come first.
Usain Bolt, like a thunder bolt
Dashed and darted to his final halt
With all the might combined
Pushing his opponents behind
Making the world wonder if Bolt, a man or a colt

Forget your opponents; always play against par.
Opponents of cap and trade should be careful what they wish for.

Leading the Men
They praise the orders of a man who leads,
Yes, a prize awaits the worthy deeds;
Foraging for trustworthy components
The community is working opponents,
For the life and generation of men
Commends women to be ten
Fingers and
Toes.
The feet of a man are like the children
Who work for their spouses, and then
We work for more, nevertheless,
Striving adventurously in this mess.
Who leads now?
The adulthood of people shall conquer
Any person who is child or with honour.

Gain from your opponents without sacrificing your own strength.
When your opponents are you're friends there must be problems ahead.
The team that is going to win is the one that does its homework the best by studying its opponents.
