Losing Trick Count

Famous quotes containing the words losing, trick and/or count:

    We can travel longer, night and day, without losing our spirits than almost any persons we ever met.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    Nor let his Love enchant your generous Mind;
    ‘Tis Natures trick to propagate her Kind.
    Our fond Begetters, who would never die,
    Love but themselves in their Posterity.
    John Dryden (1631–1700)

    I know we’re not saints or virgins or lunatics; we know all the lust and lavatory jokes, and most of the dirty people; we can catch buses and count our change and cross the roads and talk real sentences. But our innocence goes awfully deep, and our discreditable secret is that we don’t know anything at all, and our horrid inner secret is that we don’t care that we don’t.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
