Lost

Famous quotes containing the word lost:

    The Americans have many virtues, but they have not Faith and Hope. I know no two words whose meaning is more lost sight of.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    All this stuff you heard about America not wanting to fight, wanting to stay out of the war, is a lot of horse dung. Americans, traditionally, love to fight. All real Americans love the sting of battle.... Americans play to win all the time. I wouldn’t give a hoot in hell for a man who lost and laughed. That’s why Americans have never lost—and will never lose—a war, because the very thought of losing is hateful to Americans.
    Francis Ford Coppola (b. 1939)

    This man is quickened so with grief.
    He wanders god-like or like thief
    Inside and out, below, above,
    Without relief seeking lost love.
    Robert Graves (1895–1985)
