View quotes by John O'Neill

''I have missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasions I have been entrusted to take the game winning shot... and I missed. I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that's precisely why I succeed''.
View quotes by Michael Jordan

I also lost my first final when I made it onto the tour. This time he had to face the number one in the world, but it is great experience for him [on beating Andrew Murray in his first final, 2005]
View quotes by Roger Federer

The only acting you ever see at the Oscars is when people act like they're not mad they lost. Nicole Kidman was smiling so wide, she should have won an Emmy at the Oscars for her great performance. I was like, 'If you'd done that in the movie, you'd have won an Oscar, girl!
View quotes by Chris Rock

I claim that in losing the spinning wheel we lost our left lung. We are, therefore, suffering from galloping consumption. The restoration of the wheel arrests the progress of the fell disease.
View quotes by Mahatma Gandhi

As soon as any man says of the affairs of the State 'What does it matter to me?' the State may be given up for lost.
View quotes by Jean Jacques Rousseau

Next to a battle lost, the greatest misery is a battle won.
View quotes by Duke Of Wellington

Unless we change our ways and our direction, our greatness as a nation will soon be a footnote in the history books, a distant memory of an offshore island, lost in the mists of time like Camelot, remembered kindly for its noble past.
View quotes by Margaret Thatcher

'Shannon has got a part in a show as a witch? Isn't that too close for comfort?I would call that typecast'
- Obviously no love lost between Jason and his fellow co star Shannon Doherty (Brenda) in 90210
View quotes by Jason Priestly

It is an illusion that youth is happy, an illusion of those who have lost it; but the young know they are wretched for they are full of the truthless ideal which have been instilled into them, and each time they come in contact with the real, they are bruised and wounded. - Of Human Bondage
View quotes by W Somerset Maugham

I've seen attack ships on fire on the shoulder of Orion, I've seen moon beams glisten at the Ten hauser gate, all those memories, lost like tears in the rain...
Then he releases a dove and dies while sitting in a rain storm
View quotes by Rutger Hauer

As long as men are free to ask what they must, free to say what they think, free to think what they will, freedom can never be lost and science can never regress.
View quotes by Marcel Proust

Television brought the brutality of war into the comfort of the living room. Vietnam was lost in the living rooms of America - not on the battlefields of Vietnam.
View quotes by Marshall McLuhan

Growing older, I have lost the need to be political, which means... the need to be left. I am driven to grudging toleration of the Conservative Party because it is the party of non-politics, of resistance to politics.
View quotes by Kingsley Amis

A friend in power is a friend lost.
View quotes by Henry Adams

A friend was approached on the street by a Hare Krishna believer in the whole regalia-saffron robe, finger cymbals. But before the Hare could begin his lecture, my friend said, I'm lost, but I'm loving it! The proselytzer was so taken aback that he simply walked away.
View quotes by Jonathan Carroll

Israel, the Jewish people and the entire world, lost today a great champion of reconciliation and brotherhood between the faiths.

This is a great loss, first and foremost for the Catholic Church and its hundreds of millions of believers, but also for humanity as a whole.
[on the death of Pope John Paul II]
View quotes by Silvan Shalom

Few influential people involved with the Internet claim that it is a good in and of itself. It is a powerful tool for solving social problems, just as it is a tool for making money, finding lost relatives, receiving medical advice, or, come to that, trading instructions for making bombs.
View quotes by Esther Dyson

If I and Seb Coe were to go to see Jacques Rogge and the IOC and say 'we know we promised you an athletics stadium but we would much rather have West Ham in there as they would make more money out of it', they would simply say 'we have a contract and you can get lost'. The deal we made is that it's an athletics stadium and we have a legally-binding contract which is more like an international treaty.
