Rage/games

Famous quotes containing the words rage and/or games:

    The foolish race of mankind
    Are swarming below in the night;
    They shriek and rage and quarrel—
    And all of them are right.
    Heinrich Heine (1797–1856)

    In 1600 the specialization of games and pastimes did not extend beyond infancy; after the age of three or four it decreased and disappeared. From then on the child played the same games as the adult, either with other children or with adults. . . . Conversely, adults used to play games which today only children play.
    Philippe Ariés (20th century)
