Won Grand Prix

Famous quotes containing the words won and/or grand:

    If a man has a talent and cannot use it, he has failed. If he has a talent and uses only half of it, he has partly failed. If he has a talent and learns somehow to use the whole of it, he has gloriously succeeded, and won a satisfaction and a triumph few men ever know.
    Thomas Wolfe (1900–1938)

    Ancient of days! august Athena! where,
    Where are thy men of might? thy grand in soul?
    Gone—glimmering through the dream of things that were.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
