Handed Players

Famous quotes containing the words handed and/or players:

“Thinking about the universe has now been handed over to specialists. The rest of us merely read about it.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

“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)
