“No idea can succeed except at the expense of sacrifice; no one ever escapes without enduring strain from the struggle of life.”
Ernest Renan
“What is success? You cannot succeed without the presence of failure. If you have the absence of failure, what is there to determine what success truly stands for? It is the great battles of life to discover our weaknesses and strengths. It is what makes us stronger, this is why we fail, and you must see it as a path to success, as we are liberating ourselves to a better outcome. Failing, is simply succeeding in a unique form”
Joseph Jolley
“Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable... Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle; the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals.”
Martin Luther King Jr.
“Self-sacrifice is the real miracle out of which all the reported miracles grow”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“I feel my belief in sacrifice and struggle getting stronger. I despise the kind of existence that clings to the miserly trifles of comfort and self-interest. I think that a man should not live beyond the age when he begins to deteriorate, when the flame that lighted the brightest moment of his life has weakened.”
Fidel Castro
“There isn’t one second of one minute of one hour of one day I regret meeting you, falling in love with you, or even losing you; for it is the greatest sacrifice to allow ourselves to lose in return of our lovers happiness.”
Nicole Shurri Hastings
“We've been trained to hope that a struggle requires sacrifice. Our family is sad. My children are deprived of their father. But we don't regret. We feel proud with my husband's stand and the principle we all fight for. We still maintain that Anwar Ibrahim is innocent, that he's become a victim of political conspiracy.”
