Losing

Famous quotes containing the word losing:

“I have to confess that I had gambled on my soul and lost it with heroic insouciance and lightness of touch. The soul is so impalpable, so often useless, and sometimes such a nuisance, that I felt no more emotion on losing it than if, on a stroll, I had mislaid my visiting card.”
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

“... a full notecase,
Dull Bodley, draught beer, and dark blue,
And most often losing the Boat Race ...”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

“Southerners can never resist a losing cause.”
—Margaret Mitchell (1900–1949)
