Famous quotes containing the words lost and/or world:
“Lord, who createdst man in wealth and store,
Though foolishly he lost the same,
Decaying more and more,”
—George Herbert (1593–1633)
“A proper autobiography is a death-bed confession. A true man finds so much work to do that he has no time to contemplate his yesterdays; for to-day and to-morrow are here, with their impatient tasks. The world is so busy, too, that it cannot afford to study any man’s unfinished work; for the end may prove it a failure, and the world needs masterpieces.”
—Mary Antin (1881–1949)
