Youth makes no compromise with life. It demands all, passionately; loses all, or wins, with anguish of spirit.
It's time to recognize what compromise means: no side wins or loses all.
If you have a character who wins all the time - well, if you have a character that loses and wins, it makes him more alive. Bugs Bunny, for example, didn't always win.
A loser doesn't know what he'll do if he loses, but talks about what he'll do if he wins, and a winner doesn't talk about what he'll do if he wins, but knows what he'll do if he loses.
Nobody wins or loses a match; it's the team that wins or loses. You have to be looking to contribute towards the team goal.
Winning is irrelevant when you’re 11 or 12 years old. It really is it. At youth tournaments, I look at the technical ability of the players. Whether the team wins or loses - I don’t care.
My principle anguish and the source of all my joys and sorrows from my youth onward has been the incessant, merciless battle between the spirit and the flesh.
I hold in my heart that rebellious spirit of youth that demands change.
The poet is he who fights on the passionate Side and whoever loses he wins; when he Is defeated it is hard to say who wins.
It doesn't matter in the end who wins and loses cause we're just here havin fun. And I'm totally lying. It always matters who wins.
The team that wins makes minimum mistakes, and the one which loses, that one makes more mistakes than the other team.
The tragedy of life is not that man loses but that he almost wins.
The tragedy of life is not that a man loses but that he almost wins.
How a person wins and loses is much more important than how much a person wins and loses.
The general who wins the battle makes many calculations in his temple before the battle is fought. The general who loses makes but few calculations beforehand.
He who loses wealth loses much; he who loses a friend loses more; but he that loses his courage loses all.
There is no mat space for malcontents or dissenters. One must neither celebrate insanely when he wins, nor sulk when he loses. He accepts victory professionally, humbly; he hates defeat, but makes no poor display of it.
