Lost Lives

Famous quotes containing the words lost and/or lives:

    Let man consider what he is in comparison with all existence; let him regard himself as lost in this remote corner of nature; and from the little cell in which he finds himself lodged, I mean the universe, let him estimate at their true value the earth, kingdoms, cities, and himself. What is a man in the infinite?
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    The little lives of earth and form,
    Of finding food, and keeping warm,
    Are not like ours, and yet
    A kinship lingers nonetheless....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
