Sports World Championships

Famous quotes containing the words sports and/or world:

    “The whole idea of image is so confused. On the one hand, Madison Avenue is worried about the image of the players in a tennis tour. On the other hand, sports events are often sponsored by the makers of junk food, beer, and cigarettes. What’s the message when an athlete who works at keeping her body fit is sponsored by a sugar-filled snack that does more harm than good?”
    —Martina Navratilova (b. 1956)

    “I am assured at any rate
    Man’s practically inexterminate.
    Someday I must go into that.
    There’s always been an Ararat
    Where someone someone else begat
    To start the world all over at.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
