    “Beloved, may your sleep be sound

    To mighty Paris when he found
    Sleep upon a golden bed
    That first dawn in Helen’s arms?”

    “For 350 years we have been taught that reading maketh a full man, conference a ready man and writing an exact man. Football’s place is to add a patina of character, a deference to the rules and a respect for authority.”
