A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle.
James Keller
A committee is a group that keeps minutes and loses hours.
Milton Berle
A German immersed in any civilization different from his own loses a weight equivalent in volume to the amount of intelligence he displaces.
Jose Bergamin
A leader who loses his connection to his people soon loses the ability to lead them.
Robert Ley
A loser doesn't know what he'll do if he loses, but talks about what he'll do if he wins, and a winner doesn't talk about what he'll do if he wins, but knows what he'll do if he loses.
Eric Berne
A man is as old as his arteries and his interests. If he permits his economic, religious, or social arteries to harden, or loses interest in whatever concerns mankind... he will need only six feet of earth.
Josephus Daniels
A man loses contact with reality if he is not surrounded by his books.
Francois Mitterrand
A people that values its privileges above its principles soon loses both.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
A public man must never forget that he loses his usefulness when he as an individual, rather than his policy, becomes the issue.
Richard M. Nixon

John Ciardi
A wise man never loses anything, if he has himself.
Michel de Montaigne
A work of art when placed in a gallery loses its charge, and becomes a portable object or surface disengaged from the outside world.

Anyone who attempts to relate his life loses himself in the immediate. One can only speak of another.
Augusto Roa Bastos
As a matter of fact, a national language which spreads beyond its own confines very quickly loses much of its original richness of content and is in no better case than a constructed language.
Edward Sapir
As soon as man enters into a state of society he loses the sense of his weakness; equality ceases, and then commences the state of war.
Charles de Secondat
By deafness one gains in one respect more than one loses; one misses more nonsense than sense.
Horace Walpole
Determine never to be idle. No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time who never loses any. It is wonderful how much may be done if we are always doing.
Thomas Jefferson
Don't let ambition get so far ahead that it loses sight of the job at hand.
William Feather
Even if it is difficult playing with other people - sometimes it's great, sometimes it isn't, but that is kind of the point of it. It loses its point playing solo.
Derek Bailey
