Light Heavyweight Champion

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or champion:

    Come, and trip it as ye go
    On the light fantastic toe,
    And in thy right hand lead with thee,
    The mountain nymph, sweet Liberty;
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    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)
