Matches are won and lost so many times in the locker room.
I already have a Tony for my Broadway concert in ’73. It’s one of the most precious things I’ve won.

Flamengo usually contact managers who have won a lot of trophies.
True as this is, it is also true that for one who won through there were many who gained nothing, and it was, and is, the sheer weight of numbers of those who failed of this that has made their influence on the modern life as pervasive and controlling as it is.
Although I have won many times now, each time when I have a lead, I start to think about winning. It’s very difficult not to think about winning. Every time, there are new challenges. Every time, there are new issues to overcome.
I won player of the year and players’ player, two cups and two championship medals, had a great time.
I crossed paths with a horse that happened to change my life. That horse is Game On Dude, and what a horse! He’s a soldier. Together we traveled the world. We won the Santa Anita Big Cap, Goodwood, almost won the Breeder’s Cup Classic; we won the San Antonio, Hollywood Gold Cup and the Californian.
Though I’d have to say it was generally the guys in Detroit, as a group, that won the two Championships. They were terrific and I always look back very fondly.
I’m fortunate now that I coach at Duke University and we’ve won a lot. I have some kids who haven’t failed that much. But when they get to college, they’re going to fail some time. That’s a thing that I can help them the most with.
There were no competitions on television. The first skating competition I ever remember seeing on television was the 1968 Olympics when Peggy Fleming won.
You know in 1982, the year we came in tied for 3rd, we probably had a better team – I mean as far as talent. When we came back the following year and won it, our pitching staff was a little more experienced and it was such a thrill.

Technology has changed things, same as everywhere. But the economy has changed drastically. When Jamaica first won independence, our dollar was stronger than the U.S. dollar. Now ours is about 90 to one. That’s had a big impact on crime and poverty.
When I was on ‘All My Children,’ we did a thing for ‘Seventeen Magazine’ where a girl won a date. I went to her prom with her in Alabama, and she was a sweetheart. I didn’t move to Alabama and I didn’t buy a farm there, but we still keep in touch.
If you paint, write, do mosaics, knit – if it’s solving that part of your brain saying, ‘I need to do this,’ you’ve won.

It would be a much better country if women did not vote. That is simply a fact. In fact, in every presidential election since 1950 – except Goldwater in ’64 – the Republican would have won, if only the men had voted.
The game is not lost – or won – until the last bell goes.
Newt changed the frame of reference of all of our candidates. That’s why we won so big in 1994.
I consider ‘Dr. Horrible’ a tremendous success. The fact that it won an Emmy I just think lends validity to what we were doing and the point we were trying to make: taking the power into someone else’s hands and changing the world.

From my perspective, probably women are won over by people who are sweet and respectful and courteous and kind and funny. I think those are the things that win women over.
China is not to be won for Christ by quiet, ease-loving men and women… The stamp of men and women we need is such as will put Jesus, China, souls first and foremost in everything and at every time – even life itself must be secondary.
When it was announced I had won the Tony Award, I was in Bangkok doing a movie with Judi Dench. I remember coming back from the location to the Oriental Hotel and hearing someone yelling across the reception area, ‘You’ve won the Tony!’ It was wonderful and strange to be halfway around the world.
I’ve been working every year since I started acting, and I got many awards before I won the Oscar for ‘The Queen.’

The very first tournament I watched is the U.S. Open when I was 13. And that was the year Juli Inkster won.

War, I have always said, forces men to change their standards, regardless of whether their country has won or lost.
A lot of people, when they see my career, they hear or remember, ‘Sat on the bench four years in college, got cut by the Packers, worked in a grocery store, and then won the Super Bowl.’ That’s kind of the timeline the people see when they hear ‘Kurt Warner.’
I think I played in Lambeau maybe 14, 15 times. I’ve played there a lot of times. It’s in the teens, double digit. I’ve had success on that field, won and lost.
The Party of the Regions has won a convincing victory. We are ready to undertake responsibility for forming the Cabinet and we are calling on everyone to join us.
Nobody loves the Boston Marathon as much as the people who make fun of it year after year. This was the race that previously offered as a prize a not particularly expensive medal, a laurel wreath, and a bowl of beef stew. This was the race that, on one memorable occasion, nobody knew who actually won.
I was nominated for a Daytime Emmy Award 19 times before I won. The first nine years, I heard someone else’s name called; after that – I think it was a protective thing – I didn’t hear whose name was called, but nobody was making eye contact with me, so I knew that it wasn’t mine.
When you retire, no-one remembers that you finished in the top four. They remember you won a trophy.
