Gene Mauch, American Athlete (1925-2002)
When you're in danger of losing a thing it becomes precious and when it's around us, it's in tedious abundance and we take it for granted as if we're going to live forever, which we're not.

I'm kind of a dork. I don't have much game. I'm not particularly comfortable in bars or clubs. I much prefer being home playing Scrabble, having dinner with a couple friends, going to see a movie, or losing a whole weekend to Season 14 of Law and Order or The Simpsons.
Wentworth Miller, English Actor (1972-  )

Janet Napolitano, American Politician (1957-  )
It's not really that I've been an advocate for hearing aids for a long time, it's just that I've been losing my hearing for a long time! So it's actually very important for me because I'm actually hearing impaired and I simply want to hear better!
Leslie Nielsen, Canadian Actor (1926-2010)
I postpone death by living, by suffering, by error, by risking, by giving, by losing.
Anais Nin, American Author (1903-1977)

Ruud van Nistelrooy, Dutch Athlete (1976-  )
You must never be satisfied with losing. You must get angry, terribly angry, about losing. But the mark of the good loser is that he takes his anger out on himself and not his victorious opponents or on his teammates.
Richard M. Nixon, American President (1913-1994)
I wish I could give you a lot of advice, based on my experience of winning political debates. But I don't have that experience. My only experience is at losing them.
