Famous quotes containing the word lack:

    “Today I begin to understand what love must be, if it exists.... When we are parted, we each feel the lack of the other half of ourselves. We are incomplete like a book in two volumes of which the first has been lost. That is what I imagine love to be: incompleteness in absence.”
    —Edmond De Goncourt (1822–1896)

    “It’s not a pretty face, I grant you. But underneath its flabby exterior is an enormous lack of character.”
    —Alan Jay Lerner (1918–1986)

    “It often happens that the real tragedies of life occur in such an inartistic manner that they hurt us by their crude violence, their absolute incoherence, their absurd want of meaning, their entire lack of style.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
