consolation prize

Fred Logevall at Cornell won the Pulitzer Prize and is a diplomatic historian; he just started a book on Kennedy.

So I remember when Altman won the prize, he went up and said some version of, “Too little, too late.”

Yet according to Hamilton, “it was quickly apparent that other than pecuniary consolation would be acceptable.”

Dee Dee candles, rosaries, shirts and prints are offered for sale near the gallery's door as a kind of consolation.

The prize will not be replaced if lost, mutilated, or stolen.

The poor must look to the brightness of a future world for the consolation that they were denied in this.

And it is small consolation to me to note that most people's minds seem to be no better done than mine.

To add point to this success, he knew that the victor of Montebello was straining every nerve to gain this very prize.

Whoever succeeded in getting the ring on his stick won the game, and carried the prize home as a sign of victory.

Ike had read the "Herald," with all about "the great prize fight" in it, and had become entirely carried away with it.
