Win

Famous quotes containing the word win:

“Were not the right man on our side,
The man of God’s own choosing.

Christ Jesus, it is he,
Lord Sabaoth is his name,
From age to age the same,
And he must win the battle.”
—Martin Luther (1483–1546)

“The next moment he was “showing off” with all his might—cuffing boys, pulling hair, making faces—in a word, using every art that seemed likely to fascinate a girl and win her applause.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

“To become a token woman—whether you win the Nobel Prize or merely get tenure at the cost of denying your sisters—is to become something less than a man ... since men are loyal at least to their own world-view, their laws of brotherhood and self-interest.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
