Famous quotes containing the words search, big and/or games:

    I never found even in my juvenile hours that it was necessary to go a thousand miles in search of themes for moralizing.
    Horace Walpole (1717–1797)

    Nothing is far and nothing is near, if one desires. The world is little, people are little, human life is little. There is only one big thing—desire.
    Willa Cather (1873–1947)

    In the past, it seemed to make sense for a sportswriter on sabbatical from the playpen to attend the quadrennial hawgkilling when Presidential candidates are chosen, to observe and report upon politicians at play. After all, national conventions are games of a sort, and sports offers few spectacles richer in low comedy.
    Walter Wellesley (Red)
