Famous quotes containing the words knights and/or soccer:
“The threadbare trees, so poor and thin,
They are no wealthier than I;
But with as brave a core within
They rear their boughs to the October sky.
Poor knights they are which bravely wait
The charge of Winters cavalry,
Keeping a simple Roman state,
Discumbered of their Persian luxury.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“If we were doing this in the Falklands they would love it. Its part of our heritage. The British have always been fighting wars.”
