Famous quotes containing the words game and/or losing:
“The savage soul of game is up at once—
The pack full-opening various, the shrill horn
Resounded from the hills, the neighing steed
Wild for the chase, and the loud hunter’s shout—
O’er a weak, harmless, flying creature, all
Mixed in mad tumult and discordant joy.”
—James Thomson (1700–1748)

Dull Bodley, draught beer, and dark blue,
And most often losing the Boat Race ...”
