I would not send a poor girl into the world, ignorant of the snares that beset her path; nor would I watch and guard her, till, deprived of self-respect and self-reliance, she lost the power or the will to watch and guard herself.
Anne Bront
The heart does not talk, it is the intellect that does all the talking. All dealings are at the intellectual level. We have become like machines; our very lives have become mechanical. Life has lost its naturalness like a garland of plastic flowers. There is no heart in life anymore. Only when hearts come together does true life blossom.
Mata Amritanandamayi Devi
Forgiveness is the remission of sins. For it is by this that what has been lost, and was found, is saved from being lost again.
St. Augustine of Hippo
At first it was just a misdemeanor, but then you lost the "mis-de" and you just got meaner and meaner..

This lost boy got fly without Peter Pan.
Drake

Lil Wayne
It was clear to him that he had lost something irretrievably that day, and that now he wanted to make up for the loss with minor, inconsequential, and most importantly, belated measures.
Mikhail Afanasievich Bulgakov
Gold as it was, is, shall be evermore: Prime nature with an added artistry No carat lost, and you have gained a ring. What of it? 'T is a figure, a symbol, say; A thing's sign: now for the thing signified.
Robert Browning
