Famous quotes containing the words team and/or world:

    “giving a nod, up the chimney he rose.
    He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
    And away they all flew like the down of a thistle,
    But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight,
    “Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night.””
    —Clement Clarke Moore (1779–1863)

    “...the world did not know God through wisdom...”
    —Bible: New Testament, 1 Corinthians 1:21.
