Famous quotes containing the words clash of, clash, champions and/or crush:

    “God of justice, save the people
    From the clash of race and creed,
    From the strife of class and faction,
    Make our nation free indeed;”
    —William Pierson Merrill (1867–1954)

    “Saint, do you weep? I hear amid the thunder
    The Fenian horses; armour torn asunder;
    Laughter and cries. The armies clash and shock,
    And now the daylight-darkening ravens flock.
    Cease, cease, O mournful, laughing Fenian horn!”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Myths and legends die hard in America. We love them for the extra dimension they provide, the illusion of near-infinite possibility to erase the narrow confines of most men’s reality. Weird heroes and mould-breaking champions exist as living proof to those who need it that the tyranny of “the rat race” is not yet final.”
    —Hunter S. Thompson (b. 1939)

    “Wee, modest, crimson-tipped flow’r,
    Thou’s met me in an evil hour;
    For I maun crush amang the stoure
    Thy slender stem:
    To spare thee now is past my pow’r,
    Thou bonnie gem.”
    —Robert Burns (1759–1796)
