English Game

Famous quotes containing the words english and/or game:

    Most English talk is a quadrille in a sentry-box.
    Henry James (1843–1916)

    Art is a concrete and personal and rather childish thing after all—no matter what people do to graft it into science and make it sociological and psychological; it is no good at all unless it is let alone to be itself—a game of make-believe, or re-production, very exciting and delightful to people who have an ear for it or an eye for it.
    Willa Cather (1873–1947)
