Riding Losing

Famous quotes containing the words riding and/or losing:

    Commuter—one who spends his life
    In riding to and from his wife;
    A man who shaves and takes a train,
    And then rides back to shave again.
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)

    A man who has never lost himself in a cause bigger than himself has missed one of life’s mountaintop experiences. Only in losing himself does he find himself. Only then does he discover all the latent strengths he never knew he had and which otherwise would have remained dormant.
    Richard M. Nixon (1913–1995)
