Losing a fantasy is much harder than losing a reality.
Losing my parents really set me adrift in more ways than one. It's not just losing them. It's losing the possibility of family.
When you're losing, there's that survival instinct. But when you're handling success, people think it's easier, and they think losing's harder. But handling success, to me, always creates more issues. Are you in touch with reality? With perception?
There comes that phase in life when, tired of losing, you decide to stop losing, then continue losing. Then you decide to really stop losing, and continue losing. The losing goes on and on so long you begin to watch with curiosity, wondering how low you can go.
Once you start losing reality, when you start losing reality with yourself, sometimes people just get dizzy.

Losing sucks. Nobody wants to be known for losing; you can't even have fun when you're losing.
We're constantly losing - we're losing time, we're losing ourselves. I don't feel for the things I lost.
Losing time is harder than death, as losing time keeps you away from Allah and the Hereafter, while death keeps you away from the worldly life and people.
When you're losing, and you're losing again, and you're losing 3... 4... 5 games in a row, it can be frustrating.
Sometimes you learn more from losing than winning. Losing forces you to reexamine.
Pay more attention to losing inches than losing pounds.
The major problem for America is we're losing two wars. We're losing in Afghanistan, we're losing in Iraq. And there seems very little likelihood that we're going to increase the number of troops we have in either place to the point that we can prevail.
I don't like losing a ballgame any more than a salesman likes losing a sale.
I hate losing more than anything. I think losing is something that drives me.
Anytime you’re gonna grow, you’re gonna lose something. You’re losing what you’re hanging onto to keep safe. You’re losing habits that you’re comfortable with, you’re losing familiarity.
