Famous quotes containing the words player of, player and/or year:
“The best chess-player in Christendom may be little more than the best player of chess; but proficiency in whist implies capacity for success in all these more important undertakings where mind struggles with mind.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (18091845)
“If God had an agent, the world wouldnt be built yet. Itd only be about Thursday.”
—Jerry Reynolds, Sacramento Kings player personnel director. Quoted in Newsweek (New York, November 25, 1991)
“It had been cold since December. Snow fell, first,
At New Year and, from then until April, lay
On everything. Now it had melted, leaving
The gray grass like a pallet, closely pressed;
And dirt. The wind blew in the empty place.”
—Wallace Stevens (18791955)
