"Winning is great, sure, but if you are……" — Wilma Rudolph

"Winning is great, sure, but if you are really going to do something in life, the secret is learning how to lose. Nobody goes undefeated all the time. If you can pick up after a crushing defeat, and go on to win again, you are going to be a champion someday."

— Wilma Rudolph
