Game Losing Streak

Famous quotes containing the words game, losing and/or streak:

    One of life’s primal situations; the game of hide and seek. Oh, the delicious thrill of hiding while the others come looking for you, the delicious terror of being discovered, but what panic when, after a long search, the others abandon you! You mustn’t hide too well. You mustn’t be too good at the game. The player must never be bigger than the game itself.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    Babies are necessary to grown-ups. A new baby is like the beginning of all things—wonder, hope, a dream of possibilities. In a world that is cutting down its trees to build highways, losing its earth to concrete ... babies are almost the only remaining link with nature, with the natural world of living things from which we spring.
    Eda Le Shan (b. 1922)

    No gray hairs streak my soul,
    no grandfatherly fondness there!
    I shake the world with the might of my voice,
    and walk—handsome,
    twentytwoyearold.
    Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893–1930)
