Famous quotes containing the words big, conference and/or football:
“Eschew the monumental. Shun the Epic. All the guys who can paint great big pictures can paint great small ones.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
“Politics is still the man’s game. The women are allowed to do the chores, the dirty work, and now and then—but only occasionally—one is present at some secret conference or other. But it’s not the rule. They can go out and get the vote, if they can and will; they can collect money, they can be grateful for being permitted to work. But that is all.”
—Mary Roberts Rinehart (1876–1958)
“... in the minds of search committees there is the lingering question: Can she manage the football coach?”
—Donna E. Shalala (b. 1941)
