Rob/games

Famous quotes containing the words rob and/or games:

    Of all crimes the worst
    Is to steal the glory
    From the great and brave,
    Even more accursed
    Than to rob the grave.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    In 1600 the specialization of games and pastimes did not extend beyond infancy; after the age of three or four it decreased and disappeared. From then on the child played the same games as the adult, either with other children or with adults. . . . Conversely, adults used to play games which today only children play.
    Philippe Ariés (20th century)
