    Thou must tell me to one penny what I am worth.
    —Unknown. King John and the Abbot of Canterbury (l. 28)

    In football they measure forty-yard sprints. Nobody runs forty yards in basketball. Maybe you run the ninety-four feet of the court; then you stop, not on a dime, but on Miss Liberty’s torch. In football you run over somebody’s face.
    Donald Hall (b. 1928)
