{{Other uses}}{{original research|date=November 2015}}Who Dares, Wins (Latin: Qui audet adipiscitur; {{lang-el|Ο τολμών νικά}}, O tolmón niká; {{lang-fr|Qui ose gagne}}; {{lang-it|Chi osa vince}}; Portuguese: Quem ousa, vence; German: Wer wagt, gewinnt) is a motto made popular by the British Special Air Service.[1] It is normally credited to the founder of the SAS, Sir David Stirling.[2] Among the SAS themselves, it is sometimes humorously corrupted to "Who cares [who] wins?".[3]The expression appears in a medieval Arabic book of fairy tales translated and published in 2014.[4] 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. An early statement of the idea is 'τοῖς τολμῶσιν ἡ τύχη ξύμφορος' ("luck favours the daring") from the Ancient Greek soldier and historian Thucydides. | Nation | Unit | Notes | | {{Flag|United Kingdom}} | Special Air Service | First to use motto> | | Australia}} | Special Air Service Regiment | | New Zealand}} | New Zealand Special Air Service | | Hong Kong}} | Special Duties Unit | | Tunisia}} | Unité Spéciale – Garde Nationale | | France}} | 1st Marine Infantry Parachute Regiment | 1er Régiment de Parachutistes d'Infanterie de Marine, 1er RPIMa}}: Former WWII French SAS squadrons (the 3rd & the 4th) | | Rhodesia}} | Rhodesian Special Air Service | .
