rdfs:comment
  • Who Dares, Wins (Latin: "Qui audet adipiscitur", ) is a motto that originated with the British Special Air Service. It is normally credited to the founder of the SAS, David Stirling. Among the SAS themselves it is sometimes humorously corrupted to "Who cares [who] wins?" The catchphrase "He Who Dares, Wins" was commonly used by Del Boy in British sitcom Only Fools and Horses. The motto has been used by twelve elite special forces units around the world that in some way have historical ties to the British SAS.
