Famous quotes containing the word games:

    “Whatever games are played with us, we must play no games with ourselves, but deal in our privacy with the last honesty and truth.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “In 1600 the specialization of games and pastimes did not extend beyond infancy; after the age of three or four it decreased and disappeared. From then on the child played the same games as the adult, either with other children or with adults. . . . Conversely, adults used to play games which today only children play.”
    —Philippe Ariés (20th century)

    “At the age of twelve I was finding the world too small: it appeared to me like a dull, trim back garden, in which only trivial games could be played.”
    —Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
