Famous quotes containing the words prize and/or winning:
“Then, though I prize my friends, I cannot afford to talk with them and study their visions, lest I lose my own. It would indeed give me a certain household joy to quit this lofty seeking, this spiritual astronomy, or search of stars, and come down to warm sympathies with you; but then I know well I shall mourn always the vanishing of my mighty gods.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“She whom I love is hard to catch and conquer,
Hard, but O the glory of the winning were she won!”
—George Meredith (1828–1909)
