Open Champions

Famous quotes containing the words open and/or champions:

    When strawberries go begging, and the sleek
    Blue plums lie open to the blackbird’s beak,
    We shall live well—we shall live very well.
    Elinor Wylie (1885–1928)

    Did all the lets and bars appear
    To every just or larger end,
    Whence should come the trust and cheer?
    Youth must its ignorant impulse lend—
    Age finds place in the rear.
    All wars are boyish, and are fought by boys,
    The champions and enthusiasts of the state:
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
