If it doesn't matter who wins or loses, then why do they keep score?
Winning isn't getting ahead of others. It's getting ahead of yourself.
Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing.
The media attention. It's only good when your winning, but when you're winning, it's great. When you're losing around here, you're a complete bum.
CARSON PALMER, interview, Nov. 4, 2002
It is a silly game where nobody wins.
THOMAS FULLER, Gnomologia
Every time you win, it diminishes the fear a little bit. You never really cancel the fear of losing; you keep challenging it.
You can't win every week.
CARYL CHURCHILL, Far Away
Winning isn't everything to me, but it's a close second. Losing isn't something that I can just brush off and fake a smile to hide my frustration. It's that will and determination that I hope will get me where I want to go.
DALE EARNHARDT, JR., Driver #8
Winners have to absorb losses.
ICE-T, Men's Health, Dec. 2005
- Who overcomes
- By force, hath overcome but half his foe.
JOHN MILTON, Paradise Lost
Yes, victory is sweet, but it doesn't necessarily make life any easier the next season or even the next day.
PHIL JACKSON, Sacred Hoops
