quotations about winning
You can be a really successful golfer, and live comfortably, fly private and have a nice house, nice car, and never win. And I feel like I was born differently. I feel like winning is everything. I feel like I would rather sleep on the streets and be homeless and have had won.

Never change a winning game; always change a losing one.
BILL TILDEN
attributed, The Executive's Book of Quotations
It must not be assumed that winning is necessarily constructive or moral, nor is it, in and of itself, a political philosophy to be blindly followed. By itself, the act of winning says nothing about the underlying methods used or the attributes, principles, or ethics of the actors involved regarding any particular issue. A CEO may be dedicated to winning for his company (winning in this case defined, say, as simply making more money), but the means of winning could fall anywhere on the spectrum from honesty to deceit and corruption.
