Letter "D" » defeat
«The greatest test of courage on earth is to bear defeat without losing heart.»
«Strategy without tactics is the slowest route to victory. Tactics without strategy is the noise before defeat.»
«There is no failure except in no longer trying. There is no defeat except from within, no really insurmountable barrier save our own inherent weakness of purpose.»
«There is no better than adversity. Every defeat, every heartbreak, every loss, contains its own seed, its own lesson on how to improve your performance the next time.»
«The good fighters of old first put themselves beyond the possibility of defeat, and then waited for an opportunity of defeating the enemy.»
«The opportunity to secure ourselves against defeat lies in our own hands, but the opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself.»
«The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotion, spends himself in a worthy cause; who at best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who have never tasted victory or defeat.»
«Out of defeat can come the best in human nature. As Christians face storms of adversity, they may rise with more beauty. They are like trees that grow on mountain ridges -- battered by winds, yet trees in which we find the strongest wood.»
«There are many victories worse than a defeat.»
Author: George Eliot (Novelist) | Keywords: defeat, victories
«The problems of victory are more agreeable than the problems of defeat, but they are no less difficult.»
