The loss which is unknown is no loss at all.

The loss of wealth is loss of dirt,
As sages in all times assert;
The happy man's without a shirt.John Heywood
Even now as a manager, when I suffer a loss it still feels like a first loss, the first I suffered as a player. And when I win, it is like my first win, too. This is me, this is my personality, it is who I am and will always be.
Diego Maradona
Bad company is as instructive as licentiousness. One makes up for the loss of one’s innocence with the loss of one’s prejudices.
Denis Diderot
Grief: An emotional experience often brought about by a great sense of loss. The subject of this loss is completely immaterial.
Peter Greenaway
Canst thou judge men?... then make us imitators of thyself, as Socrates did. Do this, do not do that, else will I cast thee into prison; this is not governing men like reasonable creatures. Say rather, As God hath ordained, so do; else thou wilt suffer chastisement and loss. Askest thou what loss? None other than this: To have left undone what thou shouldst have done: to have lost the faithfulness, the reverence, the modesty that is in thee! Greater loss than this seek not to find! (91).
