“வெற்றி பெற்றவனை விட தோற்றவனிடம் தான் ஆட்டோகிராப் வாங்க வேண்டும் போல் இருக்கிறது .. காரணம் - வெற்றி விளையாட்டை பெருமை கொள்ள செய்கிறது, தோல்வி விளையாட்டை புரிந்துகொள்ள செய்கிறது.. எல்லா விளையாட்டு வீரர்களும் ஒரு முறையாவது தோற்றவர்கள்தானே ..”

“நிமிர்ந்த நன்னடை நேர்கொண்ட பார்வையும்,
நிலத்தில் யார்க்கும் அஞ்சாத நெறிகளும்,
திமிர்ந்த ஞானச் செருக்கும் இருப்பதால்
செம்மை மாதர் திறம்புவ தில்லையாம்;
அமிழ்ந்து பேரிரு ளாமறி யாமையில்
அவல மெய்திக் கலையின் றி வாழ்வதை
உமிழ்ந்து தள்ளுதல் பெண்ணற மாகுமாம்
உதய கன்ன உரைப்பது கேட்டிரோ!”
