Triumph

Famous quotes containing the word triumph:

“Most glorious Lord of life! that, on this day,
Didst make thy triumph over death and sin;
And, having harrowed hell, didst bring away
Captivity thence captive, us to win:”
—Edmund Spenser (1552?–1599)

“To vanquish without peril is to triumph without glory.”
—Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)

“We are not here to triumph by fighting, by stratagem, or by resistance,
Not to fight with beasts as men. We have fought the beast
And have conquered. We have only to conquer
Now, by suffering. This is the easier victory.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
