Black Players

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or players:

“To be black and an intellectual in America is to live in a box.... On the box is a label, not of my own choosing.”

“I do not like football, which I think of as a game in which two tractors approach each other from opposite directions and collide. Besides, I have contempt for a game in which players have to wear so much equipment. Men play basketball in their underwear, which seems just right to me.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
