A Quote by Samuel Butler

Loyalty is still the same, whether it win or lose the game; as true as a dial to the sun, although it be not shined upon. — © Samuel Butler
Loyalty is still the same, whether it win or lose the game; as true as a dial to the sun, although it be not shined upon.
You have to be true to yourself and remain humble. Whether you win or lose, you've got to treat everyone the same, and be who you are.
Life has but one true charm: the charm of the game. But what if we’re indifferent to whether we win or lose?
One reason I won't compromise is because I believe honesty helps you win over the long haul. You can win a game tomorrow and lose a team. You can lose a game tomorrow and win a football team.
If I win, it's a bonus. If I lose, the sun still comes up the next day, and it's all good.
I think that at the start of a game, you're always playing to win, and then maybe if you're ahead late in the game, you start playing not to lose. The true competitors, though, are the ones who always play to win.
We play every game to win and take the game forward. And if in trying to win we lose a game, tough luck.
If you win the turnover battle and the explosive play battle in the same game, you win it 98 percent of the time. Now, can you win it with only winning one and losing one? Sure, but if you lose both of 'em, you only win 2 percent of the games where that occurrence happens.
You can pick any game and there are two or three plays that determine whether you win or lose, going either way. That's the beauty of the league, man. Every game counts, no matter who you're playing or what their record is.
We're gracious and we're humble, and we play the game a certain way, whether we win or lose.
As a player if you win 10 in a row and you lose one, or you lose 10 in a row, you are still going to be angry when you lose. It's the nature of the game.
It does not matter whether you win or lose, what matters is whether I win or lose!
To me, it's just another game of football - 11 players, a grass pitch. Regardless what shirt I have on, it's important you win the game, and I'm competitive as anyone, and I want to win every game, whether it's a Sunday league game, a five-a-side tournament, or a World Cup qualifier.
All experiments that are related to the games when you have humans versus machines in the games - whether it's chess or "Go" or any other game - machines will prevail not because they can solve the game. Chess is mathematically unsolvable. But at the end of the day, the machine doesn't have to solve the game. The machine has to win the game. And to win the game, it just has to make fewer mistakes than humans. Which is not that difficult since humans are humans and vulnerable, and we don't have the same steady hand as the computer.
Live in the world without any idea of what is going to happen. Whether you are going to be a winner or a loser, it doesn't matter. Death takes everything away. Whether you lose or win is immaterial. The only thing that matters, and has always been, is how you played the game. Did you enjoy it? - the game itself - then each moment is of joy. You never sacrifice the moment for the future.
You may learn much more from a game you lose than from a game you win. You will have to lose hundreds of games before becoming a good player.
Nobody ever told me, I found out for myself, You gotta believe in foolish miracles, it's not how you play the game, it's if you win or lose, you can choose, don't confuse, win or lose.
