Famous quotes containing the words football and/or summer:
“...I’m not money hungry.... People who are rich want to be richer, but what’s the difference? You can’t take it with you. The toys get different, that’s all. The rich guys buy a football team, the poor guys buy a football. It’s all relative.”
—Martina Navratilova (b. 1956)
“The summer that I was ten—
Can it be there was only one
summer that I was ten? It must
have been a long one then—”
—May Swenson (1919–1995)
