Green Dragons, also known as simply "Dragonsi"(The Dragons), are supporters of the Olimpija branch of sport clubs in Ljubljana. The most prominent roles amongst these belong to NK Olimpija and KK Union Olimpija. They are also one of two major football Ultras groups in Slovenia, the other being their traditional enemy, the Viole. They mostly wear green and white symbols and clothing, which are the club's colors. They are divided into three main sub-groups: Youth Crew, made up of the younger members, CRC, containing the veterans, and other semi-active members.
Famous quotes containing the words green and/or dragons:
“Meanwhile the mind from pleasure less
Withdraws into its happiness;
The mind, that ocean where each kind
Does straight its own resemblance find;
Yet it creates, transcending these,
Far other worlds and other seas,
Annihilating all that’s made
To a green thought in a green shade,”
—Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
“Hermann and Humbert are alike only in the sense that two dragons painted by the same artist at different periods of his life resemble each other. Both are neurotic scoundrels, yet there is a green lane in Paradise where Humbert is permitted to wander at dusk once a year; but Hell shall never parole Hermann.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
