Won

Famous quotes containing the word won:

    he was nothing to be won or lost.
    All lands to him were Ithaca: love-tossed
    He loathed to fraud, yet would not bed alone.

    A man who knows the Real
    is won only by true feeling.
    Who can fool an old cat
    with sour gruel?
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    What then in love can woman do?
    If we grow fond they shun us.
    And when we fly them, they pursue:
    But leave us when they’ve won us.
