Big Hook

Famous quotes containing the words big and/or hook:

“God is not on the side of the big battalions, but on the side of those who shoot best.”
—Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)

“A hook shot kisses the rim and
hangs there, helplessly, but doesn’t drop

and for once our gangly starting center
boxes out his man and times his jump

perfectly, gathering the orange leather
from the air like a cherished possession”
—Edward Hirsch (b. 1950)
