NUMBER:7425
AUTHOR:William Wetmore Story (1819–1895)
QUOTATION:          They only the victory win
Who have fought the good fight and have vanquished the demon that tempts us within;
Who have held to their faith unseduced by the prize that the world holds on high;
Who have dared for a high cause to suffer, resist, fight—if need be, to die.
