Ronald Reagan had a great line with that. I think it was in the movie "Hong Kong" which co-starred Rhonda Fleming (I think).
Anyway, Reagan's character in the movie told Fleming something like: "We had a great deal just after the War. We would buy military surplus low and sell high. It couldn't lose."
Fleming: "So what happened?"
Reagan: "We lost."
