Famous quotes containing the word game:

    “A man’s idea in a card game is war—cruel, devastating and pitiless. A lady’s idea of it is a combination of larceny, embezzlement and burglary.”
    —Finley Peter Dunne (1867–1936)

    “The notion that the public accepts or rejects anything in modern art ... is merely romantic fiction.... The game is completed and the trophies distributed long before the public knows what has happened.”
    —Tom Wolfe (b. 1931)
