England Lost

Famous quotes containing the words england and/or lost:

    In England we have come to rely upon a comfortable time-lag of fifty years or a century intervening between the perception that something ought to be done and a serious attempt to do it.
    —H.G. (Herbert George)

    A woman who’d lost her first son
    consoled us with an angel gone ahead
    to pray for our family—
    gone into that sky
    seeking oxygen,
    gone into autopsy,
    Michael S. Harper (b. 1938)
