“But man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not defeated.”
Ernest Hemingway
“You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it.”
Maya Angelou
“We may encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.”
“You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. Please remember that your difficulties do not define you. They simply strengthen your ability to overcome.”
“When a man is pushed, tormented, defeated, he has a chance to learn something”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“We pay just as dearly for our triumphs as we do for our defeats. Go ahead and fail. But fail with wit, fail with grace, fail with style. A mediocre failure is as insufferable as a mediocre success. Embrace failure! Seek it out. Learn to love it. That may be the only way any of us will ever be free. Tom Robbins Before you give up hope, turn back and read the attacks that were made on Lincoln.”
Bruce Barton
“A wise man fights to win, but he is twice a fool who has no plan for possible defeat.”
Louis L'Amour
