Won

Famous quotes containing the word won:

    For sleeping, like death,

    With a nod from nature,
    With a lack of strain,
    And a loss of stature.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    The real enemy can always be met and conquered, or won over. Real antagonism is based on love, a love which has not recognized itself.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)

    Great things are won by great dangers.
    Herodotus (c. 484–424 B.C.)
