Famous quotes containing the words losing and/or effort:
“Southerners can never resist a losing cause.”
—Margaret Mitchell (1900–1949)
“And in counterpoint, from other windows,
the effort to be merry—ay, maracas!
Msibilant, intricate—the voices wailing pleasure,
arriving perhaps at joy, late, after sets
have been switched off, and silences
are dark windows?”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
