Home Defeat

Famous quotes containing the words home and/or defeat:

    You may be used to a day that includes answering eleven phone calls, attending two meetings, and writing three reports; when you are at home with an infant you will feel you have accomplished quite a lot if you have a shower and a sit-down meal in the same day.
    Anne C. Weisberg (20th century)

    Life is essentially a cheat and its conditions are those of defeat ... the redeeming things are not “happiness and pleasure” but the deeper satisfactions that come out of struggle.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
