Famous quotes containing the word won:

    When a man spends his time giving his wife criticism and advice instead of compliments, he forgets that it was not his good judgment, but his charming manners, that won her heart.

    he was nothing to be won or lost.
    All lands to him were Ithaca: love-tossed
    He loathed to fraud, yet would not bed alone.
    Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    As to what we call the masses, and common men;Mthere are no common men. All men are at last of a size; and true art is only possible, on the conviction that every talent has its apotheosis somewhere. Fair play, and an open field, and freshest laurels to all who have won them!
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
