Famous quotes containing the words losing, trick and/or count:
“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.”

“If thou must love me, let it be for nought
Except for love’s sake only. Do not say
“I love her for her smile—her look—her way
Of speaking gently,—for a trick of thought
That falls in well with mine, and certes brought
A sense of pleasant ease on such a day”—”
—Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)
“Happiness was not made to be boasted, but enjoyed. Therefore tho’ others count me miserable, I will not believe them if I know and feel myself to be happy; nor fear them.”
—Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)
