A Quote by Jane Austen

My good opinion once lost is lost forever. — © Jane Austen
My good opinion once lost is lost forever.
Maybe it’s that I find it hard to forgive the follies and vices of others, or their offenses against me. My good opinion, once lost, is lost forever.
But a Constitution of Government once changed from Freedom, can never be restored. Liberty, once lost, is lost forever.
Lost wealth may be replaced by industry, lost knowledge by study, lost health by temperance or medicine, but lost time is gone forever.
I have faults enough, but they are not, I hope, of understanding. My temper I dare not vouch for. It is, I believe, too little yielding— certainly too little for the convenience of the world. I cannot forget the follies and vices of other so soon as I ought, nor their offenses against myself. My feelings are not puffed about with every attempt to move them. My temper would perhaps be called resentful. My good opinion once lost, is lost forever.
Take care of the hearts you've been entrusted with. Once lost, they can be lost from you forever.
When money is lost, a little is lost. When time is lost, much more is lost. When health is lost, practically everything is lost. And when creative spirit is lost, there is nothing left.
Away with the idea of getting independence first, and looking for liberty afterwards... Our liberties, once lost, may be lost forever.
Liberty, once lost, is lost forever.
Money lost, something lost. Honor lost, much lost. Courage lost, everything lost-better you were never born
For I see that then I was still all in a state of innocence, but that innocence, once lost, is lost forever.
Money lost-nothing lost, Health lost-little lost, Spirit lost-everything lost.
...Cities may be rebuilt, and a People reduced to Poverty, may acquire fresh Property: But a Constitution of Government once changed from Freedom, can never be restored. Liberty once lost is lost forever. When the People once surrendered their share in the Legislature, and their Right of defending the Limitations upon the Government, and of resisting every Encroachment upon them, they can never regain it.
When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when character is lost, all is lost.
When we lost Glen Campbell, we lost an American original. We also lost a really good man.
I am not yours, nor lost in you, not lost, although I long to be. Lost as a candle lit at noon, lost as a snowflake in the sea. You love me, and I find you still a spirit beautiful and bright, yet I am I, who long to be lost as a light is lost in light.
The world is full of people who have lost faith: politicians who have lost faith in politics, social workers who have lost faith in social work, schoolteachers who have lost faith in teaching and, for all I know, policemen who have lost faith in policing and poets who have lost faith in poetry. It's a condition of faith that it gets lost from time to time, or at least mislaid.
