Each victory is usually a line of defeats. Explanation: Така май е най-straightforward. _____________________________ Понеже фразата не е еднозначна и не е ясно (поне за мен) дали това е заради съзнателно търсена амбивалентност или заради непрецизност на превода, ето и малко варианти: Victory usualy arrives as а line of defeats. Victory would usually arrive as a line of defeats. (...) a series of defeats. (...) chain of defeats. Victory builds on defeats. Victory is a line of someone's defeats. или пък: One's victory is a line of someone else's defeats.

Ending up victorious means having suffered a line of defeats. И т.н., може да си tweak-ваме още дълго ;) |
