Famous quotes containing the words american and/or football:

    “The common faults of American language are an ambition of effect, a want of simplicity, and a turgid abuse of terms.”
    —James Fenimore Cooper (1789–1851)

    “...I’m not money hungry.... People who are rich want to be richer, but what’s the difference? You can’t take it with you. The toys get different, that’s all. The rich guys buy a football team, the poor guys buy a football. It’s all relative.”
    —Martina Navratilova (b. 1956)
