Victory is not final. Defeat is not failure. It's all about courage.
No compromise with the main purpose, no peace till victory, no pact with unrepentant wrong.
Victory will never be found by taking the path of least resistance.
Victory is only wrested by running risks.
Better to dare mighty things and fail than to live in a grey twilight where there is neither victory nor defeat.
Victory is the beautiful, bright-colored flower. Transport is the stem without which it could never have blossomed.
The V sign is the symbol of the unconquerable will of the occupied territories, and a portent of the fate awaiting the Nazi tyranny.
You ask what the aim is? I tell you it is victory - total victory.
Victory was to be bought so dear as to be almost indistinguishable from defeat.
Indomitable in retreat, invincible in advance; insufferable in victory.
We must be very careful not to assign this deliverance the attributes of a victory. Wars are not won by evacuations
What is our policy? ... to wage war against a monstrous tyranny, never surpassed in the dark, lamentable catalogue of human crime.
In War: Resolution, In Defeat: Defiance, In Victory: Magnaminity In Peace: Good Will.
Before Alamein we never had a victory. After Alamein we never had a defeat.
