We improve ourselves by victories over ourselves. There must be contest, and we must win.
Edward Gibbon
We've taken on the major health problems of the poorest - tuberculosis, maternal mortality, AIDS, malaria - in four countries. We've scored some victories in the sense that we've cured or treated thousands and changed the discourse about what is possible.
Paul Farmer
What they will try to do is get symbolic victories. Symbolism is important to them. They have little else. But they will strike, I believe, at centers of media, of financial, of American power, of American culture; and that is where we should place our bet.
James T. Walsh
Wheels of fire, cosmic, rich, full-bodied honest victories over desperation.
Thomas Merton
When we went up against teams that were better, I just hoped that we could steal the victories.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
Whether in chains or in laurels, liberty knows nothing but victories.
Wendell Phillips
While not widely reported, our victories in Iraq are plentiful. National elections, a democratic parliament and the drafting of a constitution are just some of the victories throughout this embattled country.
Paul Gillmor
While the coach is entitled to celebrate the team's victories, there is a manner and a way of doing so without aggravating the opponent.
Diego Maradona
