Ray Bradbury

Furnish thyself with arguments from the promises to enforce thy prayers, and make them prevalent with God.

But from another, deeper perspective: we shouldn't involve outselves in lines of development where the ultimate victory condition is emulating dead people. There's no appeal in that. It's bad for us. That kind of inherent mournfulness is just not a good way to be human.
Bruce Sterling

Ezra Pound

When the Berlin Wall came down the Americans cried, 'Victory,' and walked off the field.
Paul Keating
-
The 'Inside-Out' approach to personal and interpersonal effectiveness means to start first with self; even more fundamentally, to start with the most inside part of self, with your paradigms, your character, and your motives. The inside-out approach says that private victories precede public victories, that making and keeping promises to ourselves recedes making and keeping promises to others. It says it is futile to put personality ahead of character, to try to improve relationships with others before improving ourselves.
Stephen Covey
-
The victory of endurance born.
William Cullen Bryant
-
Don't just cope, walk in victory.
Joseph Prince
