Quote by Pierre Corneille

A Victory without danger is a triumph without glory.

A Victory without danger is a triumph without glory.

Summary

This quote implies that true victory and glory come from facing and overcoming adversity or dangers. When there are no challenges or risks involved in achieving success, it diminishes the value and significance of the triumph. It suggests that the greatest sense of accomplishment and glory is earned through pushing ourselves beyond comfort zones, taking risks, and persevering through difficult circumstances. Only when we face and triumph over dangers can we truly appreciate the glory and personal growth that comes with it.

It might sound a paradoxical thing to say --for surely never has a generation of children occupied more sheer hours of parental time --but the truth is that we neglected you. We allowed you a charade of trivial freedoms in order to avoid making those impositions on you that are in the end both the training ground and proving ground for true independence. We pronounced you strong when you were still weak in order to avoid the struggles with you that would have fed your true strength. We proclaimed you sound when you were foolish in order to avoid taking part in the long, slow, slogging effort that is the only route to genuine maturity of mind and feeling. Thus, it was no small anomaly of your growing up that while you were the most indulged generation, you were also in many ways the most abandoned to your own meager devices by those into whose safe-keeping you had been given.
