Famous quotes containing the word loses:
“Well, Pa, a woman can change better than a man. A man lives, sort of, well, in jerks. A babys born or somebody dies and thats a jerk. He gets a farm or loses it and thats a jerk. With a woman, its all in one flow, like a stream. Little eddies and waterfalls, but the river, it goes right on. A woman looks at it that way.”
—Nunnally Johnson (18971977)
“The bad gains respect through imitation, the good loses itespecially in art.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
“An alliance is like a chain. It is not made stronger by adding weak links to it. A great power like the United States gains no advantage and it loses prestige by offering, indeed peddling, its alliances to all and sundry. An alliance should be hard diplomatic currency, valuable and hard to get, and not inflationary paper from the mimeograph machine in the State Department.”
—Walter Lippmann (18891974)
