Famous quotes containing the words curling, skins and/or game:

    The Unicorn looked dreamily at Alice, and said “Talk, child.”
    Alice could not help her lips curling up into a smile as she began: “Do you know, I always thought Unicorns were fabulous monsters, too? I never saw one alive before!”
    “Well, now that we have seen each other,” said the Unicorn, “if you’ll believe in me, I’ll believe in you. Is that a bargain?”
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    What were our praise to them? They eat
    Quiet’s wild heart, like daily meat;
    Who when night thickens are afloat
    On dappled skins in a glass boat,
    Far out under a windless sky;
    While over them birds of Aengus fly....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    In the game of love, the losers are more celebrated than the winners.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
