Lost The

Famous quotes containing the word lost:

    ‘Tis not Apollo can, or those thrice three
    Castalian sisters sing, if wanting thee.
    Horace, Anacreon both had lost their fame.
    Had’st thou not filled them with thy fire and flame.
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)

    Women have their heads in their hearts. Man seems to have been destined for a superior being; as things are, I think women generally better creatures than men. They have weaker appetites and weaker intellects but much stronger affections. A man with a bad heart has been sometimes saved by a strong head; but a corrupt woman is lost forever.
    Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
