The First Rule In Politics Is That There Are No Rules, At Least Not In The Sense Of Inevitable Defeats Or Inevitable Victories. If You Have The Right Policy And The Right Strategy, You Always Have A Chance Of Winning. Without Them, You Can Lose No Matter How Certain The Victory Seems.
One Of The Greatest Victories You Can Gain Over Someone Is To Beat Him At Politeness.
God Loves Us. He's Watching Us, He Wants Us To Succeed, And We'll Know Someday That He Has Not Left One Thing Undone For The Eternal Welfare Of Each Of Us. If We Only Knew It, There Are Heavenly Hosts Pulling For Us -- Friends In Heaven That We Can't Rememer Now, Who Yearn For Our Victory.
There Is No Final Victory, As There Is No Final Defeat. There Is Just The Same Battle. To Be Fought, Over And Over Again. So Toughen Up, Bloody Toughen Up.
Defeat Is A Fact And Victory Can Be A Fact. If The Idea Is Good, It Will Survive Defeat, It May Even Survive The Victory.
Statistics Are The Triumph Of The Quantitative Method, And The Quantitative Method Is The Victory Of Sterility And Death.
Victories Are Easy And Cheap. The Only Victories Worth Anything Are Those Achieved Through Hard Work And Dedication.
Victories That Come Cheap Are Cheap. Those Only Are Worth Having Which Come As The Result Of Hard Fighting.
Next To Victory, There Is Nothing So Sweet As Defeat, If Only The Right Adversary Overcomes You.
It Is Defeat That Turns Bone To Flint; It Is Defeat That Turns Gristle To Muscle; It Is Defeat That Makes Men Invincible. Do Not Then Be Afraid Of Defeat. You Are Never So Near To Victory As When Defeated In A Good Cause.
