Win

Famous quotes containing the word win:

“All good fortune is a gift of the gods, and ... you don’t win the favor of the ancient gods by being good, but by being bold.”
—Anita Brookner (b. 1938)

“All this stuff you heard about America not wanting to fight, wanting to stay out of the war, is a lot of horse dung. Americans, traditionally, love to fight. All real Americans love the sting of battle.... Americans play to win all the time. I wouldn’t give a hoot in hell for a man who lost and laughed. That’s why Americans have never lost—and will never lose—a war, because the very thought of losing is hateful to Americans.”
—Francis Ford Coppola (b. 1939)

“I say you must not win an unjust case by oaths.”
—Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)
