Famous quotes containing the words football, team and/or century:
“In this dream that dogs me I am part
Of a silent crowd walking under a wall,
Leaving a football match, perhaps, or a pit,
All moving the same way.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

“There is no greater wealth than Virtue,
and no greater loss than to forget it.”
