I do not play football to win the Ballon d’Or. I play football to be happy, because I love it and want to play football.
A Lawyer will do anything to win a case, sometimes he will even tell the truth.
The world is filled with violence. Because criminals carry guns, we decent law-abiding citizens should also have guns. Otherwise they will win and the decent people will loose.
You must accept that you might fail; then, if you do your best and still don’t win, at least you can be satisfied that you’ve tried. If you don’t accept failure as a possibility, you don’t set high goals, you don’t branch out, you don’t try – you don’t take the risk.
I just want to win in front of my hometown and win in spectacular fashion. I’ve gotten to perform in many other venues in other states, but it’s going to be a special moment to be able to do that in front of everyone who has known me for the longest.

Personally, what goes beyond sport, you have to put to one side. You need the best to win trophies.

I have realized it is more important to be happy and enjoying the life you are living – win or lose.
If you want to win a race you have to go a little berserk.
I hate this idea that I’ve somehow become detached. It’s like I can’t win. I’d been hearing all these years that I was too hands-on: that I was the guy writing out the lineup card. Now, I’m not present enough. How is it possible to be a detached micromanager?
From the neck up is where you win or lose the battle. It’s the art of war. You have to lock yourself in and strategise your mindset. That’s why boxers go to training camps: to shut down the noise and really zone in.
I threw up before every single football game I played, and I did so up through my NFL career. It was good pressure. It was pressure to be good. It was pressure to be the best. It was pressure to want to win.
Goal scoring is a recurring theme. If you aren’t scoring then you aren’t going to win games. That’s obvious.
You can’t win if you don’t play as a unit.
People thought I was cocky because I didn’t talk much. When I first turned pro, reporters asked me who was going to win. I’d say, ‘I am’ because it was the easier than giving some long, drawn-out answer.
Cyclists live with pain, if you can’t handle it you will win nothing.
If you are going to be successful, there is no point in having three or four top individual players, because those players will win you games, but they will never win you titles.

When you play for the guy next to you, that’s when you win championships.
When you focus solely on valuation and market share, you win some and you lose some. When you focus on the needs of your customers and help them achieve their dreams, you win every time.
When I first started campaigning, I was really excited. Two-thirds of the way through, I thought, ‘Why am I doing this?’ Then I got really excited when I realized I was going to win.
Haters never win. I just think that’s true about life, because negative energy always costs in the end.
I knew that I could never win a referendum in Germany. We would have lost a referendum on the introduction of the euro. That’s quite clear. I would have lost, and by seven to three.

I prefer to win titles with the team ahead of individual awards or scoring more goals than anyone else. I’m more worried about being a good person than being the best football player in the world. When all this is over, what are you left with? When I retire, I hope I am remembered for being a decent guy.
If you win a Super Bowl before you’re fired, you’re a genius, and everyone listens to you. But a coach is just a guy whose best class in grammar school was recess and whose best class in high school was P.E. I never thought I was anything but a guy whose best class was P.E.
When you win a championship, you realize it takes a level of stamina that most people don’t have.
Most people have the will to win, few have the will to prepare to win.
Sometimes you have to accept you can’t win all the time.
You have to understand that people have to pay a price for peace. If you dare to struggle, you dare to win.
For to win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.
I have short goals – to get better every day, to help my teammates every day – but my only ultimate goal is to win an NBA championship. It’s all that matters. I dream about it. I dream about it all the time, how it would look, how it would feel. It would be so amazing.
We’re here to win. We’re not here just for the experience.
We can win respect in the world only if we are strong internally and can banish poverty and unemployment from our country.

You can lose when you outscore somebody in a game. And you can win when you’re outscored.
Sometimes you surf well and still don’t win. It happens to everyone. You learn that one big score doesn’t mean much if you don’t have a backup. I guess every rookie learns that as time goes by. I took some big lessons from my losses.
All my life, the naysayers have told me that I can’t win because I’m a progressive… because I’m a woman… even because I’m a lesbian.

That’s one of the core qualities at Real Madrid – you’ve got to be able to win all the time.

Yeah, I’ve always been someone to celebrate a win, whether it’s enjoying it with people or doing something or buying myself something that I wouldn’t buy myself.

I know to win a championship, you’re not going to do it alone. You’re going to have to have a great supporting cast.
Life has no meaning unless one lives it with a will, at least to the limit of one’s will. Virtue, good, evil are nothing but words, unless one takes them apart in order to build something with them; they do not win their true meaning until one knows how to apply them.
You can win more friends with your ears than with your mouth. People who feel like they’re being listened to feel accepted and appreciated. They feel like they’re being taken seriously and what they say really matters.
You think about someone’s well-being or someone’s health as obviously being way more important, than any sporting event you could win.
