Point Sparring

Famous quotes containing the words point and/or sparring:

    I am less disposed to think of a West Point education as requisite for this business than I was at first. Good sense and energy are the qualities required.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    A black boxer’s career is the perfect metaphor for the career of a black male. Every day is like being in the gym, sparring with impersonal opponents as one faces the rudeness and hostility that a black male must confront in the United States, where he is the object of both fear and fascination.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
