“A good man will not engage even in a national cause, without examining the justice of it.”
—Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)
“For 350 years we have been taught that reading maketh a full man, conference a ready man and writing an exact man. Football’s place is to add a patina of character, a deference to the rules and a respect for authority.”
