Quote by Billy Jean King

Victory is fleeting. Losing is forever.

Victory is fleeting. Losing is forever.

Summary

This quote suggests that victory, although celebrated and enjoyed in the moment, is a temporary state. It implies that winning does not guarantee long-lasting success or satisfaction. On the other hand, losing implies a sense of permanence and enduring impact. This statement reminds us to be mindful of the transient nature of victories and the potential enduring consequences of losses. It encourages us to perhaps focus more on the lessons and growth opportunities gained through both outcomes rather than becoming complacent or disheartened by the results.

Every human being has two religions. The first is the religion of the body which ceases to exist after death. The second is the religion of the soul, which has existed since the beginning of time, the Love of God. It is by this religion that a human being is exalted.

We've demonstrated a strong track record of being very disciplined with the use of our cash. We don't let it burn a hole in our pocket, we don't allow it to motivate us to do stupid acquisitions. And so I think that we'd like to continue to keep our powder dry, because we do feel that there are one or more strategic opportunities in the future.
