Ball Ball

Famous quotes containing the word ball:

    ‘Throw down the ball, ye Jew’s daughter,
    Throw down the ball to me!’
    ‘Never a bit,’ says the Jew’s daughter,
    ‘Till up to me come ye.’
    Unknown. Hugh of Lincoln (l. 13–16)

    Life ... is not simply a series of exciting new ventures. The future is not always a whole new ball game. There tends to be unfinished business. One trails all sorts of things around with one, things that simply won’t be got rid of.
    Anita Brookner (b. 1928)
