Golden Panthers Football

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or football:

    “Venerandam,
    In the Cretan’s phrase, with the golden crown, Aphrodite,
    Cypri munimenta sortita est, mirthful, oricalchi, with golden
    Girdles and breast bands, thou with dark eyelids
    Bearing the golden bough of Argicida.”
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    “People stress the violence. That’s the smallest part of it. Football is brutal only from a distance. In the middle of it there’s a calm, a tranquility. The players accept pain. There’s a sense of order even at the end of a running play with bodies stewn everywhere. When the systems interlock, there’s a satisfaction to the game that can’t be duplicated. There’s a harmony.”
    —Don Delillo (b. 1926)
