Free Throws Attempted

Famous quotes containing the words free, throws and/or attempted:

    And I will wear what dresses I choose!
    And I will dance, and what’s to lose!
    I’m free of you, you little prick,
    and I’m the one can make it stick.
    Robert Creeley (b. 1926)

    Yet still the miracles
    Exhume in each face
    Strong silken seed,
    That to the static
    Gold winter sun throws back
    Endless and cloudless pride.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Through Plato Aristotle came to believe in God, but Plato never attempted to prove His reality. Aristotle had to do so. Plato contemplated Him; Aristotle produced arguments to demonstrate Him. Plato never defined Him, but Aristotle thought God through logically and concluded with entire satisfaction to himself that He was the Unmoved Mover.
    Edith Hamilton (1867–1963)
