Famous quotes containing the words lost and/or nation:
“We have lit upon the gentle, sensitive mind
And lost the old nonchalance of the hand;
We are but critics, or but half create,
Timid, entangled, empty and abashed,
Lacking the countenance of our friends.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“We are a nation of governesses.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
