Famous quotes containing the words million and/or loss:

On a blank sheet of paper free from any mark, the freshest and most beautiful pictures can be painted.”
—Mao Zedong (1893–1976)

“Intimacies between women go backwards, beginning with revelations and ending up in small talk without loss of esteem.”
