Evonne Goolagong CawleyThere are no bad business and investment opportunities, but there are bad entrepreneurs and investors. To be a successful business owner and investor, you have to be emotionally neutral to winning and losing. Winning and losing are just part of the game.

David Meerman ScottBeing sociopath is not what most people would consider to be winning. Most of us have some kind of positive goal in mind when we think of winning. A sociopath thinks in terms of successfully manipulating someone into doing something that he or she would not have done otherwise. That can be a small thing or a tremendous thing, but the point for the sociopath is to win, to make sure that this person does what they're trying to coerce him or her into doing. It can be as disgusting and as simple as making a child cry. Or it can be as complex as making your wife feel bad about herself.

Julian BagginiIn our competitive world we're taught to never quit trying, never give up, and never give in - so we don't hear much about surrendering. If winning is everything, surrendering is unthinkable. Even Christians would rather talk about winning, succeeding, overcoming, and conquering than yielding, submitting, obeying, and surrendering. But surrendering to God is the heart of worship.
Rick WarrenWinning doesn't always mean being first. Winning means you're doing better than you've ever done before.
Bonnie BlairTo me, the most important part of winning is joy. You can win without joy, but winning thatโs joyless is like eating in a four-star restaurant when youโre not hungry.

Bill RussellConcurrently, while I was in school, while I was winning awards for acting, I was winning awards for singing, in high school.

Jonathan KozolYou know, what is team chemistry? My opinion is when you have enough people who care about winning and enough people who losing affects. That's what chemistry means to me.

It's almost impossible, I think, to get everyone on the same page, but it's gotta mean something to you.

Lucy Maud MontgomeryPeople who seek political power are, with exceptions too rare to matter, never to be trusted; at best, such people are vain and officious busybodies. People who actually achieve political power are to be trusted even less than those who seek it without success; winning elections requires a measure of deceitfulness and Machiavellian immorality that no decent person comes close to possessing.

Frederick LenzThere is no trickier subject for a writer from the South than that of affection between a black person and a white one in the unequal world of segregation.

SapphireIt's remarkable she [Venus Williams] plays at all, given her Sjรถgren's syndrome [an autoimmune disorder that can cause joint pain]. She's back, winning tournaments. She didn't allow society to tell her, "You have this disease; you can't do that anymore." I look at her, like, "She's not playing at 100 percent. You are. You don't have excuses." Knowing what she went through helped me try to be a more positive person.
