Defeat Quotes
Friends are at their best in moments of defeat.
- Henry Miller
Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life and when it comes, hold you head high, look it squarely in eye and say, ‘I will be bigger than you. You cannot defeat me.’
- Ann Landers
The greatest test of courage on earth is to bear defeat without losing heart.
- Robert Breen Ingerson
Hopelessly outnumbered, King Aragorn sought to inspire his men against what seemed like sure defeat against the swarming hordes of their hellish enemies.
Riding in front of his gathered, but rather lowly army, he shouted,
‘I see in your eyes the same fear that would break the heart of me.
A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends, and break all bonds of fellowship.
But it is not this day.
This day, we fight!’
- J.R.R. Tolkien
