Victory

"Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win."

"If it had not been for these things, I might have lived out my life talking at street corners to scorning men. I might have died, unmarked, unknown, a failure. Now we are not a failure. This is our career and our triumph. Never in our full life could we hope to do such work for tolerance, for justice, for man's understanding of man as now we do by accident. Our words — our lives — our pains — nothing! The taking of our lives — lives of a good shoemaker and a poor fish-peddler — all! That last moment belongs to us — that agony is our triumph."

"Victory belongs to those that believe in it the most and believe in it the longest. We're going to believe."

"The people who remained victorious were less like conquerors than conquered."

"I would say to the House, as I said to those who have joined this Government: "I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat".… You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word: It is victory, victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory, however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival."

"No retreat. No retreat. They must conquer or die who've no retreat."

"There's an old saying that victory has 100 fathers and defeat is an orphan."

"Upon the fields of friendly strife Are sown the seeds That, upon other fields, on other days Will bear the fruits of victory."
