Famous quotes containing the words win and/or points:

    “On a huge hill,
    Cragged, and steep, Truth stands, and he that will
    Reach her, about must, and about must go;
    And what the hill’s suddenness resists, win so;
    Yet strive so, that before age, death’s twilight,
    Thy Soul rest, for none can work in that night.
    To will, implies delay, therefore now do:
    Hard deeds, the body’s pains; hard knowledge too
    The mind’s endeavours reach, and mysteries
    Are like the Sun, dazzling, yet plain to all eyes.”
    —John Donne (1572–1631)

    “Mankind is not a circle with a single center but an ellipse with two focal points of which facts are one and ideas the other.”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
