Losing

Famous quotes containing the word losing:

    There is evidence that all too many people are approaching parenthood with a dangerous lack of knowledge and skill. The result is that many children are losing out on what ought to be an undeniable right—the right to have parents who know how to be good parents, parents skilled in the art of “parenting.”
    T. H. Bell (20th century)

    ... a full notecase,
    Dull Bodley, draught beer, and dark blue,
    And most often losing the Boat Race ...
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    A man who has never lost himself in a cause bigger than himself has missed one of life’s mountaintop experiences. Only in losing himself does he find himself. Only then does he discover all the latent strengths he never knew he had and which otherwise would have remained dormant.
    Richard M. Nixon (1913–1995)
