Famous quotes containing the words fine and/or lost:
“Why the ghosts of poor old dead Romans should be dragged in every time a man eats an oyster, I dont see. Were as fine specimens as they were. I swear I shant let any old turned-to-clay Lucullus outlive me, even if Ive never eaten a lamprey.”
—John Dos Passos (18961970)
“For me, it is as though at every moment the actual world had completely lost its actuality. As though there was nothing there; as though there were no foundations for anything or as though it escaped us. Only one thing, however, is vividly present: the constant tearing of the veil of appearances; the constant destruction of everything in construction. Nothing holds together, everything falls apart.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
