Involuntary Loss

Famous quotes containing the words involuntary and/or loss:

“We are things of dry hours and the involuntary plan,
Grayed in, and gray. “Dream” makes a giddy sound, not strong
Like “rent,” “feeding a wife,” “satisfying a man.””
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

“A gain is no joy, nor a loss any grief.”
—Chinese proverb.
