Famous quotes containing the words successfully and/or defended:
“Nobody knows the trouble I’ve seen: even less, the trouble I’ve successfully avoided.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“Man is exceedingly well defended against himself, against being scouted out and besieged by himself, and he is usually able to make out no more of himself than his outer fortifications. The actual fortress is inaccessible to him, even invisible, unless his friends and enemies turn traitor to him and lead him there by secret paths.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
