Sports Final

Famous quotes containing the words sports and/or final:

    “Sweet smiling village, loveliest of the lawn,
    Thy sports are fled and all thy charms withdrawn;
    Amidst thy bowers the tyrant’s hand is seen,
    And desolation saddens all thy green;
    One only master grasps the whole domain,
    And half a tillage stints thy smiling plain;”
    —Oliver Goldsmith (1730?–1774)

    “To make a final conquest of all me,
    Love did compose so sweet an enemy,
    In whom both beauties to my death agree,
    Joining themselves in fatal harmony;
    That while she with her eyes my heart does bind,
    She with her voice might captivate my mind.”
    —Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
