Lost Ground

Famous quotes containing the words lost and/or ground:

    Your love by ours we measure
    Till we have lost our treasure,
    But dying is a pleasure,
    When living is a pain.
    John Dryden (1631–1700)

    Every act of the man inscribes itself in the memories of his fellows, and in his own manners and face. The air is full of sounds; the sky, of tokens; the ground is all memoranda and signatures; and every object covered over with hints, which speak to the intelligent.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
