I'd lost everything I had. I didn't have the heart to take from someone else." "Plus I would've sniped your ass. ~ Mindy McGinnis
Lost Everything quotes by Mindy McGinnis
It is a mistake to think of the expatriate as someone who abdicates, who withdraws and humbles himself, resigned to his miseries, his outcast state. On a closer look, he turns out to be ambitious, aggressive in his disappointments, his very acrimony qualified by his belligerence. The more we are dispossessed, the more intense our appetites and illusions become. I even discern some relation between misfortune and megalomania. The man who has lost everything preserves as a last resort the hope of glory, or of literary scandal. He consents to abandon everything, except his name. [ . . . ]

Let us say a man writes a novel which makes him, overnight, a celebrity. In it he recounts his sufferings. His compatriots in exile envy him: they too have suffered, perhaps more. And the man without a country becomes - or aspires to become - a novelist. The consequence: an accumulation of confusions, an inflation of horrors, of frissons that date. One cannot keep renewing Hell, whose very characteristic is monotony, or the face of exile either. Nothing in literature exasperates a reader so much as The Terrible; in life, it too is tainted with the obvious to rouse our interest. But our author persists; for the time being he buries his novel in a drawer and awaits his hour. The illusion of surprise, of a renown which eludes his grasp but on which he reckons, sustains him; he lives on unreality. Such, however, is the power of this illusion that if, for instance, he works in some factor ~ Emil M. Cioran
Lost Everything quotes by Emil M. Cioran
Once upon a time, I lost everything and I was so alone. The sadness, the hurt, it all seemed so infinite. When you're wandering alone in a storm, you can't see the end, or if there even is one, and how close it might be.
I'm still wandering, but maybe I don't feel so lost now.
I'll keep trying. I promise. ~ Kelley York
Lost Everything quotes by Kelley York
Now, his hair is white and he no longer understands anyone's need to love, for he has lost everything, not to love, but to his games of love; and when you love as a game, you lose everything, as he lost his home and wife, and now he clings to me, afraid of loss, afraid of solitude. ~ Anais Nin
Lost Everything quotes by Anais Nin
We haven't lost everything, if we haven't lost our hope. ~ Cecelia Ahern
Lost Everything quotes by Cecelia Ahern
Thought he had it all before they called his bluff
Found out that his skin just wasn't thick enough
Wanted to go back to how it was before
Thought he lost everything
Then he lost a whole lot more ~ Nine Inch Nails
Lost Everything quotes by Nine Inch Nails
I can't tell you. I can't tell you of all people. Throughout my life you were the one person I could turn to. The one person I could always count on to understand. And now that I've lost you, I've lost everything. ~ Tabitha Suzuma
Lost Everything quotes by Tabitha Suzuma
How can you beat someone that's already lost everything? ~ Eddie Guerrero
Lost Everything quotes by Eddie Guerrero
We come to love not by finding the perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly ... Only after we have lost everything, are we free to do anything ... Throw things out there and not be perfect and not have answers to anything and see if people understand. ~ Angelina Jolie
Lost Everything quotes by Angelina Jolie
I can't keep pretending that I don't want this – that I don't want you. I can't. Not after what happened to you. It thought… I thought I'd lost you, Alex, forever. And I would've lost everything. You are my everything. ~ Jennifer L. Armentrout
Lost Everything quotes by Jennifer L. Armentrout
Nothing of what you go through in life gets lost. Everything teaches, refines and empowers you. ~ Maria Teresa De Donato
Lost Everything quotes by Maria Teresa De Donato
Ethan, I love you. Don't leave me. I can't do this without you.
If there was moonlight, I could have seen his face. But there was no moon, not now, and the only light came from the fire, still frozen, surrounding me on every side. The sky was empty, absolutely black. There was nothing. I had lost everything tonight.
I sobbed until I couldn't breathe and my fingers slipped through his, knowing I would never feel those fingers in my hair again.
Ethan. ~ Kami Garcia
Lost Everything quotes by Kami Garcia
A lesson for all of us is that for every loss, there is victory, for every sadness, there is joy, and when you think you've lost everything, there is hope. ~ Geraldine Solon
Lost Everything quotes by Geraldine Solon
In a shadowy place something white flew up. It was a heron, and it went away over the dark treetops. William Wallace followed it with his eyes and Brucie clapped his hands, but Virgil gave a sigh, as if he knew that when you go looking for what is lost, everything is a sign.
("The Wide Net") ~ Eudora Welty
Lost Everything quotes by Eudora Welty
Money lost, something lost. Honor lost, much lost. Courage lost, everything lost-better you were never born ~ Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Lost Everything quotes by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Just think how happy you'd be if you lost everything you have right now & then got it back. ~ Ronald Reagan
Lost Everything quotes by Ronald Reagan
Truthfully I don't remember much about anything after the Olympics 'cause I, I lost everything. ~ Tonya Harding
Lost Everything quotes by Tonya Harding
Decadence, decadence, he said to himself. They've lost everything and gained nothing. The French had merely daubed on the finishing touches at the end of a process which had begun five hundred years ago, at least. Their intuitive moral desires coincided with the ideals embodied in the formulas of their religion, yet they could live in accordance neither with those deepest impulses nor with the precepts of the religion, because society came in between with all the pressure of its tradition. No one could afford to be honest or generous or merciful because every one of them distrusted all the others; often they had more confidence in a Christian they were meeting for the first time than in a Moslem they had known for years. ~ Paul Bowles
Lost Everything quotes by Paul Bowles
When you're Singapore's leader and your existence depends on performance - extraordinary performance, better than your competitors - when that performance disappears because the system on which it's been based becomes eroded, then you've lost everything... I try to tell the younger generation that and they say the old man is playing the same record, we've heard it all before. I happen to know how we got here and I know how we can unscramble it." - On one freak election result ruining Singapore ~ Lee Kuan Yew
Lost Everything quotes by Lee Kuan Yew
She sang.
Wordless hymns of the sea: immediate, extemporized passages about waves and sunlight and tides and the constant, beautiful pressure of water on everything. The glory of seaweed slowly swaying, the delicious feeling that foretold a storm in the Dry World and turbulence below.
The music came out of her without pause, driven by years of observing, seeing, listening, enjoying, experiencing the world and unable to express it. The wonder and sadness of being alive. The joy of being a mermaid; the pain of being the only one like herself- the only mermaid who had been mortal, temporarily, and then lost everything. ~ Liz Braswell
Lost Everything quotes by Liz Braswell
On the water, I can see Sukey's ships, dark cities of their own. They are objects I will never touch, places I will never stand, sleeping giants that would not be disturbed even if all the shimmering lights and pretty buildings on land crumbled and fell down. Maybe we all need ships to hold our dreams, to be bigger and steadier than we ever could be, and to guard the mystery when we cannot, to keep it safe even when we have lost everything. ~ Hilary T. Smith
Lost Everything quotes by Hilary T. Smith
I almost let him die. I did. I'm not proud of that now. It was a mistake. But when all you can think of is revenge, you don't think straight. I haven't for a long time. I've plotted and manipulated and stolen to get what I want, and it's cost me everything. When I lost my mother, I lost a bit of myself to the hatred. It clouded my judgment. I couldn't think straight anymore, and I lost both my father and brother because of it. I lost the love of my life. I lost the respect of my fellow Bloods. I lost control over you. By using deception to get my revenge, I lost everything, Kara. I lost everything that ever used to matter to me. - Blood Gavin ~ S.M. Boyce
Lost Everything quotes by S.M. Boyce
I lost everything I had, but in the process I found myself." - Rumi, 13th-century Persian poet and mystic. ~ Rahul Deokar
Lost Everything quotes by Rahul Deokar
If I should have a daughter…"Instead of "Mom", she's gonna call me "Point B." Because that way, she knows that no matter what happens, at least she can always find her way to me. And I'm going to paint the solar system on the back of her hands so that she has to learn the entire universe before she can say "Oh, I know that like the back of my hand."

She's gonna learn that this life will hit you, hard, in the face, wait for you to get back up so it can kick you in the stomach. But getting the wind knocked out of you is the only way to remind your lungs how much they like the taste of air. There is hurt, here, that cannot be fixed by band-aids or poetry, so the first time she realizes that Wonder-woman isn't coming, I'll make sure she knows she doesn't have to wear the cape all by herself. Because no matter how wide you stretch your fingers, your hands will always be too small to catch all the pain you want to heal. Believe me, I've tried.

And "Baby," I'll tell her "don't keep your nose up in the air like that, I know that trick, you're just smelling for smoke so you can follow the trail back to a burning house so you can find the boy who lost everything in the fire to see if you can save him. Or else, find the boy who lit the fire in the first place to see if you can change him."

But I know that she will anyway, so instead I'll always keep an extra supply of chocolate and rain boats nearby, 'cause there is no heartbreak that chocolate can't fix ~ Sarah Kay
Lost Everything quotes by Sarah Kay
A totally new kind of education is needed in the world. The person who is born to be a poet is proving himself stupid in mathematics and the person who could have been a great mathematician is just cramming history and feeling lost. Everything is topsy-turvy because education is not according to your nature: it does not pay any respect to the individual. It forces everybody into a certain pattern. ~ Osho
Lost Everything quotes by Osho
I told him I had once lost everything I had, too, and that I think that can be God's way of building walls around us to force us to look up at Him. ~ Kimberly Novosel
Lost Everything quotes by Kimberly Novosel
Have you ever dealt with people who have lost everything in just an hour? In the morning you leave the house where your wife, your children, your parents live. You return and you find a smoking pit. Then something happens to you - to a certain extent you stop being human. You do not need any glory, money anymore; revenge becomes your only joy. And because you no longer cling to life, death avoids you, the bullets fly past. You become a wolf. ~ Russian General Aleksander Lebed
Lost Everything quotes by Russian General Aleksander Lebed
[M]ore than they wanted freedom, the Athenians wanted security. Yet they lost everything - security, comfort, and freedom. This was because they wanted not to give to society, but for society to give to them. The freedom they were seeking was freedom from responsibility. It is no wonder, then, that they ceased to be free. In the modern world, we should recall the Athenians' dire fate whenever we confront demands for increased state paternalism. ~ Margaret Thatcher
Lost Everything quotes by Margaret Thatcher
Because I have lost everything already. My hands shake as ~ Veronica Roth
Lost Everything quotes by Veronica Roth
You can't scare a man who has lost everything. ~ Nitya Prakash
Lost Everything quotes by Nitya Prakash
The red directors were one of the main political forces. Another force was the former Soviet ministers who lost everything because of the transformation of the Soviet Union to Russia. ~ Anatoly Chubais
Lost Everything quotes by Anatoly Chubais
When you've lost everything, you can walk through hell and not even feel the heat. ~ Elaine Hussey
Lost Everything quotes by Elaine Hussey
Sometimes we have to live even when we have lost everything. ~ M.B. Mohan
Lost Everything quotes by M.B. Mohan
Now I realized that life supplies us with everything we need for the journey. Everything I had acquired either actively or passively, everything I had learned either voluntarily or by osmosis, was coming back to me as the real riches of my life, even though I had lost everything. ~ Ingrid Betancourt
Lost Everything quotes by Ingrid Betancourt
For once I thought I was dead; for once I thought I had lost everything, and for once I thought all was over for me, but I saw the amazing grace of God over me! ~ Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
Lost Everything quotes by Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
So many of you have lost everything. I don't know what to say to you. But the Lord does know what to say to you. Some of you have lost part of your families. All I can do is keep silence and walk with you all with my silent heart. ~ Pope Francis
Lost Everything quotes by Pope Francis
If you lose your wealth, you have lost nothing; if you lose your health, you have lost something; but if you lose your character, you have lost everything. ~ Woodrow Wilson
Lost Everything quotes by Woodrow Wilson
Either Christianity is true or it's false. If you bet that it's true, and you believe in God and submit to Him, then if it IS true, you've gained God, heaven, and everything else. If it's false, you've lost nothing, but you've had a good life marked by peace and the illusion that ultimately, everything makes sense. If you bet that Christianity is not true, and it's false, you've lost nothing. But if you bet that it's false, and it turns out to be true, you've lost everything and you get to spend eternity in hell. ~ Blaise Pascal
Lost Everything quotes by Blaise Pascal
Then why did you come here?" Andrew asked. "Because I'm tired," Neil said, trying to sound defeated. It didn't take much effort. "I have nowhere else to go, and I'm too jealous of Kevin to stay away from him. He knows what it's like to hate every day of his life, to wake up afraid every day, but he's got you at his back telling him everything's going to be okay. He has everything, even when he's lost everything, and I'm - " Neil didn't want to say it, but the word was already there, broken and pathetic between them, " - nothing. I'll always have and be nothing. ~ Nora Sakavic
Lost Everything quotes by Nora Sakavic
I would have, Damien! I would have! I would have rather died a thousand painful, torturous deaths than watch you die one! I would have given up anything to go back to that day and relive it!" Damien takes a step back as I run shaky fingers through my hair. I lower my voice and cry, "When you died, I thought I lost everything. I was empty. Numb inside. And the pain...the pain of feeling my heart break over and over again was never ending. I'm sorry about what happened. I think you know that. But what I think you know more than anything is you haunting me and reminding me of what you sacrificed is the most mean-spirited thing you've ever done." More tears well in my eyes, and I suck them back trying to be strong. "The Damien, I knew wouldn't want this for me. He wouldn't want me to live the rest of my life, loving his ghost.
My Damien was too proud, good, and selfless for that." The one thing that I forgot was that in this dream, this is not my Damien. He's a sinister, sick, and twisted version of the boy I loved. And I know this when he lunges at me, wraps both of his hands around my neck, cuts off the air in my throat, and whispers in a deadly voice, "Love me."
"No!" I bolt upright in my bed choking on air. "No!" I try to steady my breathing, but I'm too shaken up to concentrate ~ Lauren Hammond
Lost Everything quotes by Lauren Hammond
I did nothing wrong, and yet I have lost everything! ~ Erin Hunter
Lost Everything quotes by Erin Hunter
We hurt so much because we have lost a part of ourselves. If we have loved much, we must have given much also, and when everything's over, we feel as though we have lost everything. ~ Jocelyn Soriano
Lost Everything quotes by Jocelyn Soriano
We did not go out of each other's lives in a blaze of anger. We simply fell out of the habit of speaking. We lost our common language and so lost everything. There was nothing for us to say. ~ Naomi Alderman
Lost Everything quotes by Naomi Alderman
It had made her too helpless, because that's what love did. There was no way around it and no way to fight it. Now if she lost, she lost everything. ~ Alice Hoffman
Lost Everything quotes by Alice Hoffman
It's the story that was to big for me to tell, the one that grew to fill the depths of my being the far corners of my mind. It's how I lost my system of meaning.
But I haven't lost everything.
Somewhere, somehow, adrift in the sea and far from the stars, I've found faith.
In myself.
And that makes all the difference. ~ Stephanie Kuehn
Lost Everything quotes by Stephanie Kuehn
I had seen people who had lost everything and everyone they loved to war, famine, and natural disasters. ~ Chelsea Clinton
Lost Everything quotes by Chelsea Clinton
His son lost everything because he was trying to do his job and protect himself. His life matters too, you know?"
I cannot right now. I can't. I stand up or otherwise I will say or do something really stupid. Like punch her.
...
"Are you serious right now? Hailey asks. "What's wrong with saying his life matters too?"
"His life always matters more!" My voice is gruff, and my throat is tight. "That's the problem! ~ Angie Thomas
Lost Everything quotes by Angie Thomas
It's amazing that even though I've lost everything else, I still have wrestling. ~ Hulk Hogan
Lost Everything quotes by Hulk Hogan
Youth and what the Italians so prettily call stamina. The vigor, the fire, that enables you to love and create. When you've lost that, you've lost everything. ~ Simone De Beauvoir
Lost Everything quotes by Simone De Beauvoir
In whatever battle we're facing, we too often lose hope. And once we've lost hope we've not only lost the battle, we've lost everything else as well. ~ Craig D. Lounsbrough
Lost Everything quotes by Craig D. Lounsbrough
If we lost everything except for the clothes we stood up in, would we turn to each other and think....How lucky we really were? ~ Jacqueline Kennedy
Lost Everything quotes by Jacqueline Kennedy
Well of course man. We Indians have lost everything. We lost our native land, we lost our languages, we lost our songs and dances. We lost each other. We only know how to lose and be lost. ~ Sherman Alexie
Lost Everything quotes by Sherman Alexie
I lost everything in the post-natal depression. ~ Erma Bombeck
Lost Everything quotes by Erma Bombeck
I completely lost everything, but I gained everything because I lost the fear. ~ Kanye West
Lost Everything quotes by Kanye West
Humility is not a one time lesson that comes when you have lost everything. It is a daily reminder of how far we have come, yet still short of who we can be through HIS guidance. Blessed is the soul that can recognize that he isn't moving mountains, but God is for him. ~ Shannon L. Alder
Lost Everything quotes by Shannon L. Alder
And in that single crackle of tortured electronics she had lost everything. Her comm, her lights, her limited maneuvering jets, her life support regulator, her emergency beacons.

Everything.

For a second her thoughts flickered to Skywalker. He'd been lost in deep space, too, awhile back. But she'd had a reason to find him. No one had a similar reason to find her. ~ Timothy Zahn
Lost Everything quotes by Timothy Zahn
She was sad about what happened to Kostos. And someplace under that, she was sad that people like Bee and Kostos, who had lost everything, were still open to love, and she, who'd lost nothing, was not. ~ Ann Brashares
Lost Everything quotes by Ann Brashares
I am working in Paris . I cannot for a single day get the thought out of my head that there probably exists something essential, some immutable reality, and now that I have lost everything else (thank God, it gets lost all on its own) I am trying to preserve this and, what is more, not to be content. In a word: I am working. ~ Marc Chagall
Lost Everything quotes by Marc Chagall
Jim Bakker. He's lost everything, he's ruined. And the worst thing of all he still has to wake up to her! ~ Sam Kinison
Lost Everything quotes by Sam Kinison
I guess that's what happens when you've lost everything that had any real meaning. You become numb to what's left. ~ Melyssa Winchester
Lost Everything quotes by Melyssa Winchester
We had won the war, but when the insurgency reared its ugly head, we lost everything we had gained. ~ Kenneth Eade
Lost Everything quotes by Kenneth Eade
I have lived through many wars and have lost everything many times Yet, life is beautiful, and I have so much to learn and enjoy. I have no space nor time for pessimism and hate. ~ Alice Herz-Sommer
Lost Everything quotes by Alice Herz-Sommer
If a worker is deprived of hope to acquire some personal property, what other natural stimulus can be offered him that will inspire him to hard work, labor, saving and sobriety today, when so many nations and men have lost everything and all they have left is their capacity for work? ~ Pope Pius XII
Lost Everything quotes by Pope Pius XII
If I may, Miss," Sands said. "What you call 'a mascot' is more what should be termed 'an icon.' A subject not just of morale but of veneration or even worship. These men are United States Marines, yes, and they will continue to do their duty. But they are Marines who have lost everything. Family, friends, buddies, country. We are one and all lost and adrift on a darkling sea. You, Miss Smith, have become not their pin-up girl but their heart and soul. They would follow me into hell. Charge any shore, face any fire. I am their Gunny. That's what Marines do. If you hinted that Satan had a case of ammo you particularly liked, they would charge in without a bucket of water. As Staff Sergeant Januscheitis said when he, separately, brought the idea up: 'The only thing we've got left, Gunny, is Faith. ~ John Ringo
Lost Everything quotes by John Ringo
I have lost everything, and I am so poor now that I really cannot afford to let anything worry me. ~ Joseph Jefferson
Lost Everything quotes by Joseph Jefferson
Love is spiritual. It's about self-sacrifice and commitment. And discipline. You cannot have true love without discipline and respect. When you lose the respect of your spouse, you've lost everything. ~ Candace Bushnell
Lost Everything quotes by Candace Bushnell
He's lost everything once, and now, he wasn't sure if he had anything left to lose. ~ Carrie Ann Ryan
Lost Everything quotes by Carrie Ann Ryan
He's a sick old man who's lost everything and everyone. You have a huge heart, Gabriel - find room in it to be kind. ~ Nalini Singh
Lost Everything quotes by Nalini Singh
By his disobedience of God's law, before man had exercised his power to bring children into the earth, not only Adam lost everything for himself, but his children were born as sinners, imperfect, and without the right to live. ~ Joseph Franklin Rutherford
Lost Everything quotes by Joseph Franklin Rutherford
I've been thinking a lot about the word "everything." Whenever something horrible happens, you hear people say they "lost everything." They lost their house or their car or their stuff or whatever, and to them it feels like everything. But they have no idea what it's like to lose everything. I thought I knew, but now I realize even I haven't lost everything, because I still have that polka-dot swimsuit in my memory. I still have those ice cream nights and the scorpion that scared Marin and the Barking Bulldogs sweatshirt and the robins-egg-blue nail polish. Somehow having those things makes the other things matter less.
I'm wondering if it's even possible to lose "everything" or if you just have to keep redefining what "everything" is. ~ Jennifer Brown
Lost Everything quotes by Jennifer Brown
Any investor unwise or patriotic enough to hang on to gilt-edged securities (consols or the new UK War Loans) would have suffered inflation-adjusted losses of -46 per cent by 1920. Even the real returns on British equities were negative (-27 per cent).51 Inflation in France and hyperinflation in Germany inflicted even more severe punishment on anyone rash enough to maintain large franc or Reichsmark balances. By 1923 holders of all kinds of German securities had lost everything, ~ Niall Ferguson
Lost Everything quotes by Niall Ferguson
It's not the hurt pride. It's the lack of love. It's gut wrenching. I mean, a family is an attempt to create a private world of trust in a storm and then it just all gets blown to shit and all the bits get scattered and lost. Everything falls apart. ~ Daniel Watkins
Lost Everything quotes by Daniel Watkins
Mourning with no end, and a sense that I had lost everything - my child, my mother's love and protection, my father's love and protection, the life I had once imagined for myself - hollowed me out. I floated every day alone and disconnected, and could not find comfort or release. I understood clearly that my history had harmed me, had cut me off from the normal connections between people. Every day for five years I had been afraid of this disconnection, feeling the possibility of perfect detachment within my reach, like a river running alongside, inviting me to step into its current. ~ Meredith Hall
Lost Everything quotes by Meredith Hall
Most Southerners of my parents' era were raised to feel that it wasn't respectable to be rich. We felt that all patriotic Southerners had lost everything in defense of the South, and sufficient time hadn't elapsed for respectable rebuilding of financial security in a war- impoverished region. ~ Sarah-Patton Boyle
Lost Everything quotes by Sarah-Patton Boyle
You don't begin to live, until you've lost everything ... I've lost everything three or four times. A perfect place to start. ~ Jim Stovall
Lost Everything quotes by Jim Stovall
My dad went to jail for a long time. We lost everything, and the situation never resolved itself. My parents had this sort of passionate, disastrous desire for each other - not ideal to grow up in. ~ Natalia Kills
Lost Everything quotes by Natalia Kills
Kumar was a man who felt in the end he had lost everything, even his Englishness, and could then only meet every situation - even the most painful - in silence, in the hope that out of it he would dredge back up some self-respect. ~ Paul Scott
Lost Everything quotes by Paul Scott
He never rested until he had lost everything. For him gambling was a method of self-punishment as well. ~ Anonymous
Lost Everything quotes by Anonymous
I got married at a very young age, and of course, for all the wrong reasons, and ended up divorced and lost everything. It was a very difficult time in my life. ~ Willie Aames
Lost Everything quotes by Willie Aames
Father argued that society as a whole must come to be organized on a different basis than greed, for while material interests gained somewhat by the institutionalized deification of pure selfishness, ordinary men and women lost everything by it. ~ Russell Banks
Lost Everything quotes by Russell Banks
I whisper over to myself the way of loss, the names of the dead. One by one, we lose our loved ones, our friends, our powers of work and pleasure, our landmarks, the days of our allotted time. One by one, the way we lose them, they return to us and are treasured up in our hearts. Grief affirms, them, preserves them, sets the cost. Finally a man stands up alone, scoured and charred like a burnt tree, having lost everything and (at the cost only of its loss) found everything, and is ready to go. Now I am ready. ~ Wendell Berry
Lost Everything quotes by Wendell Berry
The perfect symmetry between the dismantling of the wall of shame and the end of limitless Nature is invisible only to the rich Western democracies. The various manifestations of socialism destroyed both their peoples and their ecosystems, whereas the powers of the North and the West have been able to save their peoples and some of their countrysides by destroying the rest of the world and reducing its peoples to abject poverty. Hence a double tragedy: the former socialist societies think they can solve both their problems by imitating the West; the West thinks it has escaped both problems and believes it has lessons for others even as it leaves the Earth and its people to die. The West thinks it is the sole possessor of the clever trick that will allow it to keep on winning indefinitely, whereas it has perhaps already lost everything. ~ Anonymous
Lost Everything quotes by Anonymous
Mapleshade: "Your punishment is complete now, Crookedstar. You have lost everything."
Crookedstar: "No, Mapleshade. You're wrong. I still have a clan that I love and am proud to lead. And now ... now everything precious to me is here, in StarClan. My family is waiting here for me, when my ninth life has passed. It's you who have lost. You have no power over me anymore."
Mapleshade: "I have destroyed you!"
Crookedstar: "No, Mapleshade. I still have the cats that I loved. You have nothing and no one. ~ Erin Hunter
Lost Everything quotes by Erin Hunter
Where Darth Sidious had gained everything, Vader had lost everything. ~ James Luceno
Lost Everything quotes by James Luceno
It's halftime. Both teams are in their locker room discussing what they can do to win this game in the second half.

It's halftime in America, too. People are out of work and they're hurting. And they're all wondering what they're going to do to make a comeback. And we're all scared, because this isn't a game.

The people of Detroit know a little something about this. They almost lost everything. But we all pulled together, now Motor City is fighting again.

I've seen a lot of tough eras, a lot of downturns in my life. And, times when we didn't understand each other. It seems like we've lost our heart at times. When the fog of division, discord, and blame made it hard to see what lies ahead.

But after those trials, we all rallied around what was right, and acted as one. Because that's what we do. We find a way through tough times, and if we can't find a way, then we'll make one.

All that matters now is what's ahead. How do we come from behind? How do we come together? And, how do we win?

Detroit's showing us it can be done. And, what's true about them is true about all of us.

This country can't be knocked out with one punch. We get right back up again and when we do the world is going to hear the roar of our engines.

Yeah, it's halftime America. And, our second half is about to begin. ~ Clint Eastwood
Lost Everything quotes by Clint Eastwood
Nothing sweeter than to drag oneself along behind events; and nothing more reasonable. But without a strong dose of madness, no initiative, no enterprise, no gesture. Reason: the rust of our vitality. It is the madman in us who forces us to adventure; once he abandons us, we are lost; everything depends on him, even our vegetative life; it is he who invites us, who obliges us to breathe, and it is also he who forces our blood to venture through our veins. Once he withdraws, we are alone indeed! We cannot be normal and alive at the same time. ~ Emil Cioran
Lost Everything quotes by Emil Cioran
A madman is not someone who has lost his reason but someone who has lost everything but his reason ~ G.K. Chesterton
Lost Everything quotes by G.K. Chesterton
Only after disaster can we be resurrected. It's only after you've lost everything that you're free to do anything. Nothing is static, everything is evolving, everything is falling apart. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Lost Everything quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
Dear Sixpence,
I saved them all, you know. Every letter you ever sent, even those to which I never replied. I'm sorry for so many things, my love: that I left
you; that I never came home; that it took me so long to realize that you were my home and that, with you by my side, none of the rest
mattered.
But in the darkest hours, on the coldest nights, when I felt I'd lost everything, I still had your letters. And through them, in some small way,
I still had you.
I loved you then, my darling Penelope, more than I could imagine - just as I love you now, more than you can know.
Michael
Hell House, February 1831 ~ Sarah MacLean
Lost Everything quotes by Sarah MacLean
If I tell Dad he has a problem, he'll think I hate him. How can I hurt him more? He just lost everything."
Wesley shook his head. "Not everything. He didn't lose you," he said. "At least not yet. If you don't talk to him, he'll just end up driving you away, and then he will be in far worse pain. ~ Kody Keplinger
Lost Everything quotes by Kody Keplinger
Isn't this exactly what I wanted? Why do I feel so sad then, like I had suddenly just lost everything? ~ S.C. Stephens
Lost Everything quotes by S.C. Stephens
Then eventually wails from my mother herself, when she realized what was happening, what she had done. The authorities didn't believe her, of course, because she wasn't a child in their eyes. She was a black child. And a black child is just as guilty as a black adult in the eyes of the law. So they dragged her away in handcuffs while she screamed, "Noooo! It was an ccident! I didn't mean to! No, please! Noooo!" She screamed with the intensity and high pitch of a child who has just lost everything. She was only ten years old, but she knew her life was over from that point on. She decided right then that there could be no redemption for her and that she must be irreversibly broken. ~ Echo Brown
Lost Everything quotes by Echo Brown
One day, when we were coming back from school, we saw this big cloud of smoke coming up, and all these fire-trucks in the yard. The garage was burning down. I was 14, and we'd lost everything. ~ Valerie June
Lost Everything quotes by Valerie June
If a man has lost everything he has but his dreams, it means that he has still everything! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Lost Everything quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
As it turned out, Welcome was where I lost everything, and gained everything. Welcome was the place where my life was guided from one track to another, ending me to places I'd never thought of going. ~ Lisa Kleypas
Lost Everything quotes by Lisa Kleypas
Michael felt as if his heart might burst. With the death of the council he had felt as though he had lost everything that mattered to him, but here in his arms, he found the last piece of hope he had left in the world. We have to go back and help Gabe. ~ Wendy Owens
Lost Everything quotes by Wendy Owens
Once upon a time, there was a prince. From a young age, he knew he was destined for greatness for he knew that one day, he would inherit the kingdom from his father. But the prince also had a secret. He was scared of failure. Terrified of it. So completely frightened of not being as good a king as his father, that he would stay up every night braced with the fear of mediocrity.

And so, the prince took a medicine to calm his anxiety and he slew trolls! And he took more, and he slew dragons! But one day, he took too much and nearly lost everything. So he was banished. The kingdom would not have him. He was the talk of the countryside, an embarrassment to his family and more important, a disappointment to the king.

But the prince would concoct a plan. He would venture back to the land of the queen. There, he would reclaim greatness and thereby gain entrance to the kingdom. And all was going well until of course, this little shit came along. ~ Ngozi Ukazu
Lost Everything quotes by Ngozi Ukazu
I've lost everything in this world, and it's clean gone, forever
and now I can't lose heaven, too; no, I can't get to be wicked, besides all. ~ Harriet Beecher Stowe
Lost Everything quotes by Harriet Beecher Stowe
In Memory of M. B.

Here is my gift, not roses on your grave,
not sticks of burning incense.
You lived aloof, maintaining to the end
your magnificent disdain.
You drank wine, and told the wittiest jokes,
and suffocated inside stifling walls.
Alone you let the terrible stranger in,
and stayed with her alone.
Now you're gone, and nobody says a word
about your troubled and exalted life.
Only my voice, like a flute, will mourn
at your dumb funeral feast.
Oh, who would have dared believe that half-crazed I,
I, sick with grief for the buried past,
I, smoldering on a slow fire,
having lost everything and forgotten all,
would be fated to commemorate a man
so full of strength and will and bright inventions,
who only yesterday it seems, chatted with me,
hiding the tremor of his mortal pain. ~ Anna Akhmatova
Lost Everything quotes by Anna Akhmatova
Well done, my fine fellow out of my womb. What have you gained? Nothing! And oh, what have you lost? Everything! ~ Jeanette Winterson
