Won Quotes

It has never happened in history that a nation that has won a war has been held accountable for atrocities committed in preparing for and waging that war. We intend to make this one different. What took place was the use of technological material to destroy a defenseless country. From 125,000 to 300,000 people were killed... We recognize our role in history is to bring the transgressors to justice Picture Quote #1

I never won anything by myself. I was always strong because of help that gave me extra strength to win Picture Quote #1

Lacy was a pleasurable fight. It wasn’t my hardest fight because I won every single minute of every single round Picture Quote #1

Not only did I win the fight, but I won something that’s more than a fight could ever give me and that is gaining back a family Picture Quote #1

Naming things, breaking through taboos and denial is the most dangerous, terrifying, and crucial work. This has to happen in spite of political climates or coercions, in spite of careers being won or lost, in spite of the fear of being criticized, outcast, or disliked. I believe freedom begins with naming things. Humanity is preserved by it Picture Quote #1

I’ve won. Hurray! I don’t have to go to school any more Picture Quote #1

Every struggle, whether won or lost, strengthens us for the next to come. It is not good for people to have an easy life. They become weak and inefficient when they cease to struggle. Some need a series of defeats before developing the strength and courage to win a victory Picture Quote #1

School was a waste of time for me. I was bored and left at 16. I started taking correspondence courses at college instead. I did incredibly well. I won an award for my grades Picture Quote #1

I’ve won my last four matches by knockout. Out of 30 fights, I’ve won more than 20 by knockout. I think that a ballet dancer wouldn’t win by knockout Picture Quote #1

After you’ve won something, you’re no longer 100 percent, but 90 percent. It’s like a bottle of carbonated water where the cap is removed for a short while. Afterwards there’s a little less gas inside Picture Quote #1

There is the potential for dreams to come true, for records to be broken, and medals to be won, and at this time everyone believes that they individually have the potential to make their dream a reality Picture Quote #1

You have to persuade yourself that you absolutely don’t care what happens. If you don’t care, you’ve won. I absolutely promise you, in every serious negotiation, the man or woman who doesn’t care is going to win Picture Quote #1

It’s better to have won and lost than to have won, stopped trying, and descended into alcoholism Picture Quote #1

No big modern war has been won without preponderant sea power; and, conversely, very few rebellions of maritime provinces have succeeded without acquiring sea power Picture Quote #1

No jockey ever won a race by carrying the horse across the finish line; no coach ever won a volleyball match by touching the ball during play Picture Quote #1

When you win an election, you are always inclined to believe you won for the reasons you wanted to win Picture Quote #1

It’s no good to want to win still more when you have already won Picture Quote #1

Even if a king defeats his enemy in battle, that still doesn’t settle anything. There are other, less numerous armies of philosophers and scientists, and their contests determine the true triumph or defeat of nations. One scholar is matched with another; one creative mind with another; and one judicious temperament with his counterpart. A victory won on that field counts for three won by force of arms Picture Quote #1

Courts should always do the right thing. But if winning were as simple as making a good argument and filing a good brief, then we would have won the freedom to marry 40 years ago. We must put the legal work next to the public education work next to the legislative work next to the organizing work, and that’s what’s brought us so far Picture Quote #1

Fortunately during my career I have won more or less everything, so I need to enjoy it to have the right motivation Picture Quote #1

There are plenty of guys who played great golf, had great careers and only won a few majors Picture Quote #1

My only drive was to be the best dancer in the world, but I never won the world championship Picture Quote #1

In a war, no matter the outcome of a certain skirmish or battle, the winner is the party whose attitudes, behaviors and preoccupations come to dominate the postwar landscape. By this measure, the outcome of the gender wars, if wars they were, is clear: women won Picture Quote #1

I entered a poem in a poetry contest around 1987, and the poem won and I received $1,000 for it. That made me realize that maybe what I was writing was worth reading to people. After that, for some reason, I turned to novels and I’ve written mainly novels ever since Picture Quote #1

Brother killing brother, father slaying son. From the looks of this old graveyard, hell nobody really won Picture Quote #1

I left school the day I turned 16, the earliest day I legally could. Determined to follow a life on stage, preferably with some dance connection, I applied for and won a place at the local drama school. I was on my way Picture Quote #1

I wrote my first short story for a competition and won second prize. Another competition came up and I won first prize. The first story was published in a newspaper. The second went out on radio Picture Quote #1

No matter how many awards you’ve won or how many sales you’ve got, come the next book it’s still a blank sheet of paper and you’re still panicking like hell that you’ve got nothing new to say Picture Quote #1

The best battle is the battle that is never fought. The best war is the war that is won without a battle Picture Quote #1

Rewriting is the essence of writing well: it’s where the game is won or lost. The idea is hard to accept. We all have emotional equity in our first draft; we can’t believe that it wasn’t born perfect. But the odds are close to 100 percent that it wasn’t Picture Quote #1
