Famous quotes containing the words champion and/or spark:
“Let’s not quibble! I’m the foe of moderation, the champion of excess. If I may lift a line from a die-hard whose identity is lost in the shuffle, “I’d rather be strongly wrong than weakly right.””
—Tallulah Bankhead (1903–1968)
“Give me a girl at an impressionable age, and she is mine for life!”
—Muriel Spark (b. 1918)
