Winning isn't everything, but it beats anything in second place. — © William C. Bryant
Winning isn't everything, but it beats anything in second place.
Winning isn't everything, but it beats anything that comes in second.
Winning isn't everything, but it sure beats anything that comes in second.
I didn't lose. I got second. That's still winning. How could I be unhappy with second place? There are a million people who would love to be in my position.
I made my entire first tape using Beats headphones - the studio headphones and halfway through the second one, because I finally started making a home studio. But I record and make all my beats with the Beats headphones.
There is no room for second place. There is only one place in my game and that is first place. I have finished second twice in my time at Green Bay and I never want to finish second again.
Winning has a joy and discrete purity to it that cannot be replaced by anything else. Winning is important to any man's or woman's sense of satisfaction and well-being. Winning is not everything; but it is something powerful, indeed beautiful, in itself, something as necessary to the strong spirit as striving is necessary to the healthy character.
Obviously in the NBA, winning is everything; every NBA player will tell you when you are in a winning situation that's what this league is about. That one year in Phoenix when we went to the Western Conference finals was amazing; Portland when we got to the second round was a great year.
We've had other things come up in their place, but I don't think' anything beats morals.
I'm not a win at all costs guy. Winning isn't everything. It's second to breathing.
There is no prize in sales for second place. It's win or nothing. The masters know this and strive for - they fight for - that winning edge.
Before anything, I wanted to be a rapper. I used to make beats and I would start singing to layer my beats and that's kind of how I realized I could sing.
Winning the second grand slam, it was a bit different. I don't have anything to prove anymore. I am at the top: number one.
In '96, I was in a very specific place with my own music - I was only listening to beats. You would come to my house, and I would just play beats all day.
Winning isn't everything, but losing isn't anything.
I've never been in a place where winning has hurt the ability to do anything.
I have finished second twice in my time at Green Bay, and I don't ever want to finish second again. There is a second place bowl game, but it is a game for losers played by losers. It is and always has been an American zeal to be first in anything we do, and to win, and to win, and to win.
