I think the phrase of "wining is not the most important things, its every thing." by Vince Lombardi means everything we do is in order to be success, its everything in our lives. In my experience and opinion this is not always true. In the essay " The Admiral" by Coreen Glyn, the author uses a sad mood to describe his best friend, Jimmy's life.

Jimmy once was a soldier. He is not in good shape nor successful. He even has no place to live. However, he never gives up and blames life. He lives in a happy way. He dies few weeks before his 80th birthday. At his funeral, many of his friends come to see him last time. In this reminiscence, the author says we can live happily without success.
