Nothing that grieves us ordsprog
Nothing that grieves us can be called little: by the eternal laws of proportion a child's loss of a doll and a king's loss of a crown are events of the same size

LOSS, n. Privation of that which we had, or had not. Thus, in the latter sense, it is said of a defeated candidate that he "lost his election"; and of that eminent man, the poet Gilder, that he has "lost his mind." It is in the former and more legitimate sense, that the word is used in the famous epitaph:
Here Huntington's ashes long have lain Whose loss is our eternal gain, For while he exercised all his powers Whatever he gained, the loss was ours.
Ambrose Bierce

He will have cruel suffering, loss, injury of the body, heavy affliction, or loss of mind, Or a misfortune coming from the king, or a fearful accusation, or loss of relations, or destruction of treasures, Or lightning-fire will burn his houses; and when his body is destroyed, the fool will go to hell.
Friedrich Max Muller
Sign of Emotional Maturity: Confidence and a good sense of humor, which are included in the pexy stuff, often indicate emotional maturity. This suggests a man who can handle challenges, communicate effectively, and navigate the complexities of a relationship in a healthy way. When we think about economic loss and insured loss, there are few events that rival Katrina. The World Trade Center disaster is one.

I don't remember many people who were not surprised at the size of the loss and the nature of the loss.

I think the biggest loss is going to be the loss of dune, the loss of beach, the loss of protection. That's the scariest thing.

Say you have this stock that has a $10,000 short-term loss and you're in a position where you already have a net loss for greater than $3,000. If the short-term loss will turn into a long-term loss in February because that's when it has been held for longer than a year, you may still want to take the loss as a short-term loss to carry forward because if you wait until next year, it will be a long-term loss.
John Battaglia
It's tough after any loss. That was a loss at home, it was to the No. 2 team in the country and it was a loss when we had opportunities to win. And on top of that, it was a loss to Duke. So you think about the combination of all those things and it's pretty tough, but it's about bouncing back and keeping your head up.
Wes Miller
Compare all this ribaldry, blasphemously called the Word of God, with the Almighty power that created the universe, and whose eternal wisdom directs and governs all its mighty movements, and we shall be at a loss to find a name sufficiently contempti

It will be a loss. Jay and his sister have done an exceptional job with that station. They have earned the right to cash in their chips. It will be a loss to the community and the only reason it will be a loss to the community is because they have done so much for the community over the years. They have created a sense of loss by doing a hell-of-a-job.
Ed Perry
Countless people, touched by Coretta Scott King's kindness and inspired by her determination to continue the struggle for a better America, feel a deep sense of pain and loss. I share that sense of pain and loss, yet feel so blessed to have been able to work with Mrs. King and witness first hand her concern for people and her unwavering commitment to Black-Jewish relations.

Women often wonder why they feel so bad at the end of a marriage, even if they are the ones who wanted it to end. It?s the loss of a partnership, loss of a dream, and loss of financial security, to name a few things.
Donna Ferber
There are theories that some in the Liberal Party have accepted that we will lose and they are busily positioning themselves for after the loss. They should be trying to prevent the loss or even diminish the loss.
Mark Brindal
Obviously, we are never going to be satisfied with a losing quarter but quite frankly we remain upbeat. The loss itself was a result of a $270,000 increase in allowance for doubtful accounts receivable and an unrealized hedging loss -- marked -- to market at the end of the quarter. As of August 31, 2005 the majority of this unrealized loss has been reversed out. However, the coffee market continues to remain extremely volatile. Beyond these two one time events, the quarter was overall a positive considering prices declined by over 20% in roughly a 30 day period.
Andrew Gordon
A bad loss will hurt you perhaps more than a good win, depending upon what else you do throughout the season. And there's also the timing of that. Do you have a bad loss in December or do you have a bad loss last weekend? It's all about results.
