Golden Boot
The Brazilian Golden Boot has been awarded to the highest goalscorer in Brazil each season since 2000. The award depends on a weighted system of points, with goals scored in certain competitions being worth more. This way, a goal scored in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A is worth more points than a goal scored in some of the State Championships.

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or boot:
“We call the beautiful the highest, because it appears to us the golden mean, escaping the dowdiness of the good and the heartlessness of the true.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“... until the shopkeeper plants his boot in our eyes,
and unties our bone and is finished with the case,
and turns to the next customer, forgetting our face
or how we knelt at the yellow bulb with sighs
like moth wings for a short while in a small place.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
