Triumph

Famous quotes containing the word triumph:

    Love in fantastic triumph sat,
    Whilst bleeding hearts around him flowed,
    Aphra Behn (1640–1689)

    Our democracy, our culture, our whole way of life is a spectacular triumph of the blah. Why not have a political convention without politics to nominate a leader who’s out in front of nobody?... Maybe our national mindlessness is the very thing that keeps us from turning into one of those smelly European countries full of pseudo-reds and crypto-fascists and greens who dress like forest elves.
    —P.J. (Patrick Jake)

    The triumph of hope over experience.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
