The superstition in which we were brought up never loses its power over us, even after we understand it. ~ Gotthold Ephraim Lessing
Loses quotes by Gotthold Ephraim Lessing
You shouldn't feel sorry for the lifestyle you haven't tasted, but for the one you are about to lose ~ Thucydides
Loses quotes by Thucydides
Only the middle distance and what may be called the remoter foreground are strictly human. When we look very near or very far, man either vanishes altogether or loses his primacy. The astronomer looks even further afield than the Sung painter and sees even less of human life. At the other end of the scale the physicist, the chemist, the physiologist pursue the close-up – the cellular close-up, the molecular, the atomic and subatomic. Of that which, at twenty feet, even at arm's length, looked and sounded like a human being no trace remains.
Something analogous happens to the myopic artist and the happy lover. In the nuptial embrace personality is melted down; the individual (it is the recurrent theme of Lawrence's poems and novels) ceases to be himself and becomes a part of the vast impersonal universe.
And so it is with the artist who chooses to use his eyes at the near point. In his work humanity loses its importance, even disappears completely. Instead of men and women playing their fantastic tricks before high heaven, we are asked to consider the lilies, to meditate on the unearthly beauty of 'mere things,' when isolated from their utilitarian context and rendered as they are, in and for themselves. Alternatively (or, at an earlier stage of artistic development, exclusively), the nonhuman world of the near-point is rendered in patterns. These patterns are abstracted for the most part from leaves and flowers – the rose, the lotus, the acanthus, palm, papyrus – an ~ Aldous Huxley
Loses quotes by Aldous Huxley
Whatever it is your doing out there, don't lose hope, you just keep digging and things can work out. I'm proof. ~ Carl Edwards
Loses quotes by Carl Edwards
Leftist big-government policies have been disastrous for black America just as they were in the countries that most Hispanics emigrated from. But like the gambling addict who keeps gambling the more he loses, those addicted to government entitlements keep increasing the size of the government even as their situation worsens. ~ Dennis Prager
Loses quotes by Dennis Prager
If you are seeking for security, certainty, your eyes will become closed. And you will be less and less surprised and you will lose the capacity to wonder. Once you lose the capacity to wonder, you have lost religion. Religion is the opening of your wondering heart. Religion is a receptivity for the mysterious that surrounds us. Don't seek security; don't seek advice on how to live your life. ~ Rajneesh
Loses quotes by Rajneesh
Our premise is there are going to be a lot of winners. It's not winner take all. Other people do not have to lose for us to win. ~ Jeff Bezos
Loses quotes by Jeff Bezos
Love is hungry and severe. Love is not unselfish or bashful or servile or gentle. Love demands everything. Love is not serene, and it keeps no records. Love sometimes gives up, loses faith, even hope, and it cannot endure everything. Love, sometimes, ends. But its memory lasts forever, and forever it may come again. Love is not a mountain, it is a wheel. No harsher praxis exists in this world. There are three things that will beggar the heart and make it crawl - faith, hope and love - and the cruelest of these is love. ~ Catherynne M Valente
Loses quotes by Catherynne M Valente
When you are successful every day, success loses its value. ~ M.F. Moonzajer
Loses quotes by M.F. Moonzajer
Sometimes, when the gods aren't looking and destiny loses its way, even good people get a taste of good luck in their lives. ~ Carlos Ruiz Zafon
Loses quotes by Carlos Ruiz Zafon
A lot of child soldiers lose their minds. ~ Emmanuel Jal
Loses quotes by Emmanuel Jal
And of course she's sad about losing her leg, but she says it's made her realise how many things she hasn't lost ... it's like a millionaire who loses a thousand dollars- he's sad, but he's still not that bad off. ~ Michael J. Collins
Loses quotes by Michael J. Collins
How much change can a person absorb before everything loses meaning Living for its own sake isn't life. People need meaning as much as they need air. ~ Daniel H. Wilson
Loses quotes by Daniel H. Wilson
Vichy proves one thing: if you don't want to know how low your fellow citizens can fall, and crawl, don't lose a war. ~ Frederic Raphael
Loses quotes by Frederic Raphael
Before, you think of it as a permanent bond of happiness; later, you see that it is a yoke, borne unequally. You marry to keep love, but sometimes that is the surest way to lose it. ~ Myrtle Reed
Loses quotes by Myrtle Reed
You will lose what you value most, so treasure it while you can. ~ Richelle Mead
Loses quotes by Richelle Mead
It is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles; if you do not know your enemies but do know yourself, you will win one and lose one; if you do not know your enemies nor yourself, you will be imperiled in every single battle. - Sun Tzu ~ Siddhartha Mukherjee
Loses quotes by Siddhartha Mukherjee
And yet fear builds its phantoms which are more fearsome than reality itself, and reality, when calmly analysed and its consequences willingly accepted, loses much of its terror. ~ Jawaharlal Nehru
Loses quotes by Jawaharlal Nehru
[N]early every creationist debater will mention the second law of thermodynamics and argue that complex systems like the earth and life cannot evolve, because the second law seems to say that everything in nature is running down and losing energy, not getting more complex. But that's NOT what the second law says; every creationist has heard this but refuses to acknowledge it. The second law only applies to closed systems, like a sealed jar of heated gases that gradually cools down and loses energy. But the earth is not a closed system
it constantly gets new energy from the sun, and this (through photosynthesis) is what powers life and makes it possible for life to become more complex and evolve. It seems odd that the creationists continue to misuse the second law of thermodynamics when they have been corrected over and over again, but the reason is simple: it sounds impressive to their audience with limited science education, and if a snow job works, you stay with it. ~ Donald R. Prothero
Loses quotes by Donald R. Prothero
I think sometimes an artist can really lose sight of what made them popular in the first place. ~ Chris Lowe
Loses quotes by Chris Lowe
Politics has always been a mud fight - better that citizens jump in the trough
than lose interest. ~ James Poniewozik
Loses quotes by James Poniewozik
Once a woman parts with her virtue, she loses the esteem even of the man whose vows and tears won her to abandon it. ~ Miguel De Cervantes
Loses quotes by Miguel De Cervantes
Its better to lose your ego to the One you Love than to lose the One you Love to your Ego ~ John Keats
Loses quotes by John Keats
It is perhaps true that that sort of sexual energy wanes over time - as the original impetus loses its luster. And then, I suppose, it's on to the next thing. But eros is eternal, like joy. ~ Micheline Aharonian Marcom
Loses quotes by Micheline Aharonian Marcom
Get inside information from the president and you will probably lose half your money. If you get it from the chairman of the board, you will lose all of your money. ~ Jim Rogers
Loses quotes by Jim Rogers
Keep repeating the exercise of grief and it loses meaning, it becomes rote, false, a game of self-delusion, self-indulgence. A way of never getting over anything, ever. ~ Steven Erikson
Loses quotes by Steven Erikson
A butterfly flitting from flower to flower ever remains mine, I lose the one that is netted by me. ~ Rabindranath Tagore
Loses quotes by Rabindranath Tagore
I know it's a lot harder for women who don't have enough help, but the truth is, no matter how much money you have, if you want to stay involved with your children and don't want to lose being a primary parent to them, you're still in the game. ~ Patricia Richardson
Loses quotes by Patricia Richardson
My guys look for me to step up in that magnitude and I take the challenge every time. Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose, but you've got to have a guy that will take those shots and deal with the consequences. ~ Chauncey Billups
Loses quotes by Chauncey Billups
I hate it when people lose it, there's nothing left because they're not interesting, they're boring, I hate it, and especially smack, people on smack are the most boring in the world. ~ Michael Hutchence
Loses quotes by Michael Hutchence
There is danger that we lose sight of what our friend is absolutely, while considering what she is to us alone. ~ Henry David Thoreau
Loses quotes by Henry David Thoreau
I'm going to speak my mind because I have nothing to lose. ~ S.I. Hayakawa
Loses quotes by S.I. Hayakawa
Failure is part of discovering the problem you need to be working on. If, as an entrepreneur, you are afraid to fail or to admit the failure of your efforts, then you completely lose any chance at being able to adapt and succeed at finding the problem that needs solving. ~ Caterina Fake
Loses quotes by Caterina Fake
Life is all about change. We cling to what we know and what we have, and then we lose it, and then we regret not having it and try to replace it by finding and changing to something else. ~ Lesley Choyce
Loses quotes by Lesley Choyce
Youth makes no compromise with life. It demands all, passionately; loses all, or wins, with anguish of spirit. ~ Marjorie Benton Cooke
Loses quotes by Marjorie Benton Cooke
We lose the peace of years when we hunt after the rapture of moments. ~ Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton
Loses quotes by Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton
We won't make the weak stronger by making the strong weaker, as a very wise man once said. That applies to the economy as well. If Germany were less competitive, the euro area as a whole would lose, because less could be produced then. ~ Mario Draghi
Loses quotes by Mario Draghi
When a child dies, a parent loses a part of themselves," he said. "Your whole world ceases to exist and you're nothing but a shell of the person you once were. Your mom has dealt with it in her way, me in mine, and you in yours." He lifted his hand off John's gravestone and rose. "Your mom hates the world, I avoid it, and you try to save it. ~ Nicole Williams
Loses quotes by Nicole Williams
White America is tortured by black America's failure to thrive, and all that guilt and anxiety has only gotten worse as a substantial quota of white America loses its own footing in the middle class and plunges into the rough country of joblessness, hopelessness, and government dependency. ~ James Howard Kunstler
Loses quotes by James Howard Kunstler
Then I almost pity Judd." Leaning in, she whispered, "Make him uncomfortable. Don't take no for an answer. Push. Push him until he loses control. Remember, fire melts ice."
Brenna looked into those eerie night-sky eyes as Faith drew back. "Could be a dangerous game."
"You don't seem to be the kind of woman content with safe and easy."
"No." She also wasn't the kind of woman who gave up at the first obstacle. Judd might be categorically Psy, but she was a SnowDancer. ~ Nalini Singh
Loses quotes by Nalini Singh
You stand up straw men," Nynaeve said. "We have a saying in the Two Rivers. 'Whether the bear beats the wolf or the wolf beats the bear, the rabbit always loses.' Take your contest somewhere else and leave Emond's Field folk out of it. ~ Robert Jordan
Loses quotes by Robert Jordan
Life is what you make it: If you snooze, you lose; and if you snore, you lose more. ~ Phyllis George
Loses quotes by Phyllis George
If you fight you won't always win. But if you don't fight you will always lose ~ Bob Crow
Loses quotes by Bob Crow
As for inhibitions, I've spent a lifetime developing them, and I don't intend to lose them. ~ Pearl S. Buck
Loses quotes by Pearl S. Buck
I wonder if fears ever really go away, or if they just lose their power over us. ~ Veronica Roth
Loses quotes by Veronica Roth
Slaying dragons, melting witches, and banishing demons is all fun and games until someone loses a sidekick - then it's personal. The bad guy isn't just the "bad guy" anymore, he's the BAD GUY! ~ Michael J. Sullivan
Loses quotes by Michael J. Sullivan
Age is information failure. The body loses fluency. ~ Jeanette Winterson
Loses quotes by Jeanette Winterson
I love my body as it is. People in the industry have been telling me to lose weight for years but I like the way I look. I give credit to my mom for helping me feel good about my appearance - for making sure I never felt embarrassed about my body, because she was never worried about looking too big. ~ Christina Hendricks
Loses quotes by Christina Hendricks
The English are always degrading truths into facts. When a truth becomes a fact it loses all its intellectual value. ~ Oscar Wilde
Loses quotes by Oscar Wilde
In a heated argument we are apt to lose sight of the truth. ~ Publilius Syrus
Loses quotes by Publilius Syrus
The ladies who try to keep their beauty are the ladies who lose it. ~ Logan Pearsall Smith
Loses quotes by Logan Pearsall Smith
If we want sincere harmony, peace and joy in our lives, we can have them, but we must be willing to do the work. We must make maintaining an awareness of our spiritual natures first in our lives. Our inner world is the architect of our external world. We don't lose faith in the goodness of life because we become angry and depressed. We become angry and depressed because we lose faith in the goodness of life. ~ Susan L. Taylor
Loses quotes by Susan L. Taylor
Everything's got space between it, the planets, trees, your eyes. Your eyes get too close together, it's a whole different world. You can lose perspective. ~ Mos Def
Loses quotes by Mos Def
When I paint to please other people I tend to lose the free spirit creative edge ... ~ Ted Martinez
Loses quotes by Ted Martinez
Also, stick around. Don't lose your heart, just keep going, keep at it. ~ Mark Ruffalo
Loses quotes by Mark Ruffalo
When he makes mistakes, he's so focused on righting the wrong, and so overconfident about his ability to fix it all, that he loses sight of the big picture and ends up making things worse. ~ Jenn Bennett
Loses quotes by Jenn Bennett
What we lose in our great human exodus from the land is a rooted sense, as deep and intangible as religious faith, of why we need to hold on to the wild and beautiful places that once surrounded us. ~ Barbara Kingsolver
Loses quotes by Barbara Kingsolver
He only has freedom who ideally loves freedom himself and is glad to extend it to others. He who cares to have slaves must chain himself to them. He who builds walls to create exclusion for others builds walls across his own freedom. He who distrusts freedom in others loses his moral right to it. ~ Rabindranath Tagore
Loses quotes by Rabindranath Tagore
Whenever an artist becomes dominated by his own ignorance, his art loses value, for it is only the professional artist that can be humble enough to admit that he is a tool in the hands of creativity. ~ Robin Sacredfire
Loses quotes by Robin Sacredfire
Writing anything as an expert is really poisonous to the writing process, because you lose the quality of discovery. ~ Siddhartha Mukherjee
Loses quotes by Siddhartha Mukherjee
The names of the cerros and the sierras and the deserts exist only on maps. We name them that we do not lose our way. Yet it was because the way was lost to us already that we have made those names. The world cannot be lost. We are the ones. And it is because these names and these coordinates are our own naming that they cannot save us. They cannot find for us the way again. ~ Cormac McCarthy
Loses quotes by Cormac McCarthy
Even though one is well advanced in virtue, should he stop mortifying himself, he soon would lose his modesty and virtue - just as fertile soul quickly becomes dry and arid and produces nothing but thorns and thistles if it is not cultivated. ~ John Climacus
Loses quotes by John Climacus
When you lose the shootout, you feel like you lost the hockey game, ... But we didn't lose the hockey game. We lost a point and they gained a point. That's the reality of it. ~ Randy Carlyle
Loses quotes by Randy Carlyle
Romance goes like this: Boy gets girl. Boy loses girl. Boy gets girl again. The end. It can't be any other way. ~ Nora Raleigh Baskin
Loses quotes by Nora Raleigh Baskin
Rather than the strength it takes to not lose, it's the strength to stand back up after a loss that is sometimes more valuable. ~ Kyo Shirodaira
Loses quotes by Kyo Shirodaira
I don't know how you feel, my brethren and sisters, but I'd rather be dead than to lose my liberty. I have no fear we'll ever lose it because of invasion from the outside. But I do have fear that it may slip away from us because of our own indifference, our own negligence, as citizens of this land. And so I plead with you this morning that you take an active interest in matters pertaining to the future of this country. ~ Ezra Taft Benson
Loses quotes by Ezra Taft Benson
I love competition and really going for it and doing my best, but losing isn't really upsetting to me. I feel like if I do lose, the other person really deserved it. ~ Corbin Bleu
Loses quotes by Corbin Bleu
But time passes. Fear becomes a memory. Terror becomes routine; it loses its grip. ~ Bernard Beckett
Loses quotes by Bernard Beckett
Xavier: They, whoever they are, shouldn't have control over our lives. I'm not about to lose you. I've been through that before, and I'll do whatever it takes to make sure it doesn't happen again. ~ Alexandra Adornetto
Loses quotes by Alexandra Adornetto
There's a difference between losing something you knew you had and losing something you discovered you had. One is a disappointment. The other feels like losing a piece of yourself. ~ Gayle Forman
Loses quotes by Gayle Forman
History's greatest lessons is that once the state embraces a religion, the nature of that religion changes radically. It loses its nonviolent component ~ Mark Kurlansky
Loses quotes by Mark Kurlansky
EBay may be a shark in the ocean, but I'm a crocodile in the Yangtze River. If we fight in the ocean, we lose, but if we fight in the river, we win, ~ Jack Ma
Loses quotes by Jack Ma
Mankind never loses any good thing, physical, intellectual, or moral, till it finds a better, and then the loss is a gain. No steps backward is the rule of human history. What is gained by one man is invested in all men, and is a permanent investment for all time. ~ Theodore Parker
Loses quotes by Theodore Parker
I was 14 when I lost them [his front teeth]. The main thing was, we won that game, so I was the happiest. You hate to lose your teeth and the game, too. ~ Bill Barber
Loses quotes by Bill Barber
Jared gently pulled my chin to face him. "He said he wouldn't make you choose. But if you don't have a choice, I'm the one that loses. So I'm going to make you choose, Nina. Choose me. Please ... choose me." He shook his head. "I can't live without you. ~ Jamie McGuire
Loses quotes by Jamie McGuire
A machine is a great moral educator. If a horse or a donkey won't go, men lose their tempers and beat it; if a machine won't go, there is no use beating it. You have to think and try till you find what is wrong. That is real education. ~ Gilbert Murray
Loses quotes by Gilbert Murray
If I lose, then I have to accept that my way of writing books is not the way society says it's okay to write. ~ Asne Seierstad
Loses quotes by Asne Seierstad
I'd thought about this for a long time. "That bank loses that much money in bad loans every
month. They make that much money in interest every day. They're a big bank. The money I
took was small change to them. No depositor was hurt."
She shook her head. "I still can't approve of it. I don't think it's right."
I felt my face go remote, still. I crossed my arms and felt cold.
She spread her hands. "It doesn't change the fact that I still love you. I've missed you terribly.
I've missed your phone calls, and I've missed your body in bed next to me. I don't know what
to do about this. My loving you goes way beyond my disapproval of your theft."
I uncrossed my arms and reached across the table for her. She leaned forward and we kissed
until the candle burned a hole in my shirt. Then we laughed and I held an ice cube to the
burn and the food came and everything was all right. ~ Steven Gould
Loses quotes by Steven Gould
In war everyone loses. This brutal truth can be seen in the eyes of every solider in every world. ~ Steven Erikson
Loses quotes by Steven Erikson
Value your freedom or you will lose it, teaches history. 'Don't bother us with politics', respond those who don't want to learn. ~ Richard Stallman
Loses quotes by Richard Stallman
You should always look like a star. Otherwise people will lose a little of the esteem they have for you. ~ Peggy Lee
Loses quotes by Peggy Lee
Try things. Laugh a lot. Mess up. Apologize. Hug people. Take chances. Trust yourself. Lose things. Get over it. ~ Taylor Swift
Loses quotes by Taylor Swift
A great paradox...red states are poorere and have more teen mothers, more divorce, worse health, more obesity, more trauma-related deaths, more low-birth-weight babies, and lower school enrollment....The gap in life expectancey between Louisiana (75.7) and Connecticut (80.8) is the same as that between the U.S. and Nicaragua....And the problem transcends race; an average black in Maryland lives four years longer, earns twice as much, and is twice as likely to have a college degree as a black in Louisiana. And whites in Louisiana are wrose off than whites in Maryland or anywhere else outside Mississippi. Louisiana has suffered many environmental problems too: there are nearly 400 miles of low, flat, subsiding coastline, adn the state loses a football field-size patch of wetland every hour. It is threatened by rising sea levels and severe hurricanes, which the world's top scientists connect to climate change. ~ Arlie Russell Hochschild
Loses quotes by Arlie Russell Hochschild
There were times in my career when I would try to write songs like Bob Dylan ... Artists get hooked up in that. To be a follower, you lose. ~ Del Shannon
Loses quotes by Del Shannon
I feel more confident and more satisfied when I reflect that I have two professions and not one. Medicine is my lawful wife and literature is my mistress. When I get tired of one I spend the night with the other. Though it's disorderly it's not so dull, and besides, neither really loses anything, through my infidelity. ~ Anton Chekhov
Loses quotes by Anton Chekhov
It takes so little, so infinitely little, for a person to cross the border beyond which everything loses meaning: love, convictions, faith, history. Human life
and herein lies its secret
takes place in the immediate proximity of that border, even in direct contact with it; it is not miles away, but a fraction of an inch. ~ Milan Kundera
Loses quotes by Milan Kundera
When a dreamer loses his lover, his dream profits. (Unless, of course, the lover was the dreamer's dream.) ~ Mokokoma Mokhonoana
Loses quotes by Mokokoma Mokhonoana
In some sort of crude sense, which no vulgarity, no humor, no overstatement can quite extinguish, the physicists have known sin; and this is a knowledge which they cannot lose. ~ J. Robert Oppenheimer
Loses quotes by J. Robert Oppenheimer
The things she most wanted to tell him would lose their meaning the moment she put them into words. ~ Haruki Murakami
Loses quotes by Haruki Murakami
But I don't want her to live like I lived. I
don't want her to see her father at his
worst. I don't want her to see him when
he loses his temper with me to the point
that she no longer recognizes him as her
father. Because no matter how many
good moments she might share with Ryle
throughout her lifetime, I know from
experience that it would only be the
worst ones that stuck with her. ~ Colleen Hoover
Loses quotes by Colleen Hoover
I would rather train someone and lose them, than not train them and keep them ~ Zig Ziglar
Loses quotes by Zig Ziglar
FORM IS ECSTATIC

There is a shimmering excitement in being sentient and shaped. The

caravan master sees his camels lost in it, nose to tail, as he himself is,

his friend, and the stranger coming toward them. A gardener watches the

sky break into song, cloud wobbly with what it is. Bud, thorn, the same.

Wind, water, wandering this essential state. Fire, ground, gone. That's

how it is with the outside. Form is ecstatic. Now imagine the inner:

soul, intelligence, the secret worlds!
And don't think the garden loses its

ecstasy in winter. It's quiet, but the roots are down there rioutous.

If someone bumps you in the street, don't be angry. Everyone careens

about in this surprise. Respond in kind. Let the knots untie, turbans

be given away. Someone drunk on this could drink a donkeyload a night.

Believer, unbeliever, cynic, lover, all combine in the spirit-form we are,

but no one yet is awake like Shams. ~ Rumi
Loses quotes by Rumi
People think I'm an artist because my films lose money. ~ Woody Allen
Loses quotes by Woody Allen
There's also a lot of punch you get from doing an extreme closeup and have it just be that image with nothing around it. There's a clarity and precision and impact there that you sometimes lose if you put everything else in that background. ~ Jim Lee
Loses quotes by Jim Lee
He who is ever brooding over result often loses nerve in the performance of his duty. He becomes impatient and then gives vent to anger and begins to do unworthy things; he jumps from action to action never remaining faithful to any. He who broods over results is like a man given to objects of senses; he is ever distracted, he says goodbye to all scruples, everything is right in his estimation and he therefore resorts to means fair and foul to attain ~ Mahatma Gandhi
Loses quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Sometimes in football you deserve to win but lose. Other times you deserve to lose or draw but you win. That is the game, and it's why I've always said you should never try to predict anything in football, especially in Europe. ~ Mario Balotelli
Loses quotes by Mario Balotelli
The only way to live in any true security is to live so close to the bottom that when you fall you do not have far to drop, you do not have much to lose. ~ Dorothy Day
Loses quotes by Dorothy Day
Politics is about who wins and loses. The rest is of marginal interest. ~ Sean Wilentz
Loses quotes by Sean Wilentz
Few things are more agreeable than the spectacle of a man who loses his temper; we should be grateful to such people for providing us with moments of often unsullied delight. ~ Harold Nicolson
Loses quotes by Harold Nicolson
Does not man lack the force at the very point where he needs it most? And when he soars upward in joy, or sinks down in suffering, is not checked in both, is he not returned again to the dull, cold sphere of awareness, just when he was longing to lose himself in the fullness of the infinite. ~ Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Loses quotes by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
