Defending Champions

Famous quotes containing the words defending and/or champions:

    When I tell any truth it is not for the sake of convincing those who do not know it, but for the sake of defending those who do.
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    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)
