Famous quotes containing the words life and/or football:

    “Above the forest of the parakeets,
    A parakeet of parakeets prevails,
    A pip of life amid a mort of tails.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “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)
