Won Race

Famous quotes containing the words won and/or race:

    Is it true or false that Belfast is north of London? That the galaxy is the shape of a fried egg? That Beethoven was a drunkard? That Wellington won the battle of Waterloo? There are various degrees and dimensions of success in making statements: the statements fit the facts always more or less loosely, in different ways on different occasions for different intents and purposes.
    —J.L. (John Langshaw)

    We are the party of all labor.
    The whole earth shall be ours to share
    And every race and craft our neighbor.
    No idle class shall linger there
    Like vultures on the wealth we render
    From field and factory, mill and mine.
    Tomorrow’s sun will rise in splendor
    And light us till the end of time.
    Eugène Pottier (1816–1887)
