Victories Quotes (page 23)

Water shapes its course according to the nature of the groundover which it flows; the soldier works out his victory in relationto the foe whom he is facing. Sun Tzu
In the half darkness I winked to my other self, my mad dictator, and congratulated him on his droll victory. I closed my eyes and felt the warmth flowing from Shosha's head to my face. What did I have to lose? Nothing more than what everyone loses anyway. Isaac Bashevis Singer
Terry Goodkind quote: "Deserve Victory"

Napoleon Bonaparte quote: "The only victories which leave no regret are those which are..."
The only victories which leave no regret are those which are gained over ignorance. Napoleon Bonaparte
I believe in aristocracy. . .? if that is the right word, and if a democrat may use it. Not an aristocracy of power, based upon rank and influence, but an aristocracy of the sensitive, the considerate and the plucky. Its members are to be found in all nations and classes, and all through the ages, and there is a secret understanding between them when they meet. They represent the true human tradition, the one permanent victory of our queer race over cruelty and chaos. E. M. Forster
William Shakespeare quote: "These sudden joys have sudden endings. They burn up in victory..."
These sudden joys have sudden endings. They burn up in victory like fire and gunpowder. William Shakespeare
May I at least carry, to the boundless possibility contained in the abyss of everything, the glory of my disillusion like that of a great dream, and the splendor of not believing like a banner of defeat; a banner in feeble hands, but still and all a banner, dragged through mud and the blood of the weak but raised high for who knows what reason - whether in defiance, or as a challenge, or in mere desperation - as we vanish into quicksand. No one knows for what reason, because no one knows... Fernando Pessoa
When you insist someone submit to your will, it is accomplished most easily if you give them a small victory so they can retain their dignity while they do as you insist. ~ Kahlan Mother Confessor Terry Goodkind
October is the cruelest month of any election year, but by then, the pain is so great that even the strong are like jelly and time has lost all meaning for anybody still involved in a political campaign. By that time, even candidates running unopposed have abandoned all hope of victory and live only for the day when they will finally be free to seek vengeance on all those treacherous bastards who once passed themselves off as loyal friends and allies and swore they were only in it because... Hunter S. Thompson
Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother. George Orwell
I had once believed that we were all masters of our fate--that we could mold our lives into any form we pleased... I had overcome deafness and blindness sufficiently to be happy, and I supposed that anyone could come out victorious if he threw himself valiantly into life's struggle. But as I went more and more about the country I learned that I had spoken with assurance on a subject I knew little about... I learned that the power to rise in the world is not within the reach of everyone. Helen Keller
It's not my victory, it's yours and yours and yours. If a gay can win, it means there is hope that the system can work for all minorities if we fight. We've given them hope. Harvey Milk
Alain de Botton quote: "Most victories are, in the best way, acts of revenge."
Most victories are, in the best way, acts of revenge. Alain de Botton
Tennessee Williams quote: "What is the victory of a cat on a hot tin roof?—I wish I..."
What is the victory of a cat on a hot tin roof?—I wish I knew... Just staying on it, I guess, as long as she can... Tennessee Williams

So few are the easy victories as the ultimate failures. Marcel Proust
