Light Heavyweight Champion

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or champion:

    With his head over his shoulder turned,
    He seemed to find his way without his eyes,
    For out o’ doors he went without their help,
    And to the last bended their light on me.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    What a terrible thing has happened to us all! To you there, to us here, to all everywhere. Peace who was becoming bright-eyed, now sits in the shadow of death; her handsome champion has been killed as he walked by her very side. Her gallant boy is dead. What a cruel, foul, and most unnatural murder! We mourn here with you, poor, sad American people.
    Sean O’Casey (1884–1964)
