Famous quotes containing the word sport:

    “Drag racing is a sport of egos, and it’s all male egos.”
    —Shirley “Cha Cha” Muldowney (b. 1940)

    “Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence: in other words it is war minus the shooting.
    ”
    —George Orwell (1903–1950)

    “What sport shall we devise here in this garden
    To drive away the heavy thought of care?”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
