The fight ended. For both was victory. For both there was defeat.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Defeat doesn't finish a man, quit does. A man is not finished when he's defeated. He's finished when he quits.
In every battle there comes a time when both sides consider themselves beaten, then he who continues the attack wins.
No battle is worth fighting except the last one.
A battle won is a battle which we will not acknowledge to be lost.
If fighting is sure to result in victory, than you must fight, even though the ruler forbid it; if fighting will not result in victory, then you must not fight even at the ruler's bidding.
A lost battle is a battle one thinks one has lost.
Thus it is that in war the victorious strategist only seeks battle after the victory has been won, whereas he who is destined to defeat first fights and afterwards looks for victory.
It is the fight alone that pleases us, not the victory.
Never confuse a single defeat with a final defeat.
Victory is always possible for the person who refuses to stop fighting.
