Move Loses

Famous quotes containing the words move and/or loses:

    Since civilizing children takes the better part of two decades—some twenty years of nonstop thinking, nurturing, teaching, coaxing, rewarding, forgiving, warning, punishing, sympathizing, apologizing, reminding, and repeating, not to mention deciding what to do when—I now understand that one wrong move is invariably followed by hundreds of opportunities to be wrong again.
    Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)

    So we’ll live,
    And pray, and sing, and tell old tales, and laugh
    At gilded butterflies, and hear poor rogues
    Talk of court news; and we’ll talk with them too—
    Who loses and who wins; who’s in, who’s out—
    And take upon ‘s the mystery of things,
    As if we were God’s spies.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
