Character is made by many acts; it may be lost by a single one.

Aristotle

So many of my friends, old friends I haven't seen in years, made their way out there and got lost, then found their way back. That seems believable to me.

Robert Carlyle

Soil is not usually lost in slabs or heaps of magnificent tonnage. It is lost a little at a time over millions of acres by the careless acts of millions of people. It cannot be saved by heroic feats of gigantic technology, but only by millions of small acts and restraints, conditioned by small fidelities, skills, and desires. Soil loss is ultimately a cultural problem; it will be corrected only by cultural solutions.

Wendell Berry

People abuse their own friends and family, but it is only after performing many meritorious acts that one gets a human birth.

Sathya Sai Baba

I lost relatives to AIDS, a couple of my closest cousins. I lost friends to AIDS, high-school friends who never even made it to their 21st birthdays in the '80s. When it's that close to you, you can't really deny it, and you can't run from it.

Queen Latifah

I don't know how to put it, but I don't have many friends. All my friends circle was in Madras, and I lost touch with them. But I'm friends with all my directors, and they are very important for me.

Mahesh Babu

I lost relatives to AIDS. A couple of my closest cousins, favorite cousins. I lost friends to AIDS, high school friends who never even made it to their 21st birthdays in the '80s. When it's that close to you, you can't - you know, you can't really deny it, and you can't run from it.

Queen Latifah

Goodwill is earned by many acts; it can be lost by one.

Stuart Duncan

I lost some friends when I made the move, but if that's what matters to them, then they're not really friends at all.

Jock Stein

If I go to Singapore, I have friends there. If they came to Zambia, they'd feel the same way. I've made connections, and I have friends in many, many countries.

Dambisa Moyo

In the context of September 11, there were so many that lost their lives that - how do you single out one person? There were so many acts of heroism that day from so many people, whether it be firemen and police officers in New York and our agents also.

Robert Mueller

I've lost many of my best friends... I'm going to satisfy myself now, not the critics, not even my friends.

Elia Kazan

For me, One Direction is the only fandom I've been in, and I made so many friends.

Anna Todd

I hear you younger people saying how many friends they have on the Internet. That's nonsense. That's not friends, that's acquaintances. The word 'friendship' has lost its significance.

Ruth Westheimer

We may have many acquaintances, but we can have but few friends; this made Aristotle say that he that hath many friends hath none.

Samuel Johnson

So many of you have lost everything. I do not know what to tell you. But surely he knows what to tell you! So many of you have lost members of your family. I can only be silent; I accompany you silently, with my heart...

Pope Francis
