Field Goal Christie

Famous quotes containing the words field, goal and/or christie:

    There is a call to life a little sterner,
    And braver for the earner, learner, yearner.
    Less criticism of the field and court
    And more preoccupation with the sport.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Work, as we usually think of it, is energy expended for a further end in view; play is energy expended for its own sake, as with children’s play, or as manifestation of the end or goal of work, as in “playing” chess or the piano. Play in this sense, then, is the fulfillment of work, the exhibition of what the work has been done for.
    Northrop Frye (1912–1991)

    Every murderer is probably somebody’s old friend.
    —Agatha Christie (1890–1976)
