A Quote by Xavier Becerra

Winning the peace is harder than winning the war. — © Xavier Becerra
Winning the peace is harder than winning the war.
Diplomacy matters. Burden-sharing matters. Follow-through matters. And yes, sustaining the peace is harder, more complex and often costlier than winning the war itself. No matter the surge of momentary machismo -- as gratifying as it may be for some -- it's short-sighted and wrong to simply go it alone.
You like more the people that you work with, you believe more in them, you share some fantastic moments and that habit of winning, winning, winning... after you win, you don't want to stop winning.
There is a reality to the primary process, and you don't win primaries by being ahead in national polls. You win them by winning Iowa, by winning New Hampshire, by winning South Carolina, winning Florida.
The technique of winning is so shoddy, the terms of winning are so ignoble, the tenure of winning is so brief; and the specter of the has-been-a shameful rather than a pitiable sight today-brings a sudden chill even to our sunlit moments.
I think that winning the battle in Hollywood is a necessary condition to winning the culture war.
Winning an argument with your wife is like winning the war with Iraq. Once you win, you're in even more trouble.

Maintaining peace can be as strenuous as winning a war.
The whole nation thinks I should be winning, winning, winning all the time and that's a lot to take on my shoulders.
I was always winning, winning, winning. I took winning for granted.
Winning is, of course, rewarding; who doesn't enjoy winning? But for me, it's about more than just winning: it's about knowing I'm putting in the day-to-day work to get a little bit better every time.
Winning takes precedence over all of it. That's the ultimate happiness. It's not location. It's not stardom. It's not 'where can I make the most money.' It's winning, and winning championships.
The pain of losing is diverting. So is the thrill of winning. Winning, however, is lonelier, as those you've won money from are not likely to commiserate with you. Winning takes getting used to.
I know a lot of people might not be used to that - the Bills having a winning mentality. But that's what Sean McDermott has brought to this franchise. Winning habits. A Winning attitude.
When I'm winning, winning, winning with a certain way why would I mess with that? When I realised there was lot to be gained from failing in some people's eyes, it made it all the more interesting!
There's only one thing better than winning 14 world titles - and that's winning 15.
