Lost

Famous quotes containing the word lost:

    What though he did not belong to your clique! Though you may not approve of his method or his principles, recognize his magnanimity. Would you not like to claim kindredship with him in that, though in no other thing he is like, or likely, to you? Do you think that you would lose your reputation so? What you lost at the spile, you would gain at the bung.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Do not because this day I have grown saturnine
    Imagine that lost love, inseparable from my thought
    Because I have no other youth, can make me pine;
    For how should I forget the wisdom that you brought,
    The comfort that you made?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Boy, however we do praise ourselves,
    Our fancies are more giddy and unfirm,
    More longing, wavering, sooner lost and worn,
    Than women’s are.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
