Pan Lost

Famous quotes containing the words pan and/or lost:

    I can’t accept “our nervous age,” since mankind has been nervous during every age. Whoever fears nervousness should turn into a sturgeon or smelt; if a sturgeon makes a stupid mistake, it can only be one: to end up on a hook, and then in a pan in a pastry shell.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    The Americans have many virtues, but they have not Faith and Hope. I know no two words whose meaning is more lost sight of.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
