Famous quotes containing the words dropped and/or lost:

    “If I hit him, he’ll hit me too,” Anton Petrovich thought in a flash. He pulled off the glove with a final yank and threw it awkwardly at Berg. The glove slapped against the wall and dropped into the washstand pitcher.
    “Good shot,” said Berg.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    All of you young people who served in the war. You are a lost generation.... You have no respect for anything. You drink yourselves to death.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
