United Played

Famous quotes containing the words united and/or played:

“The United Nations cannot do anything, and never could; it is not an animate entity or agent. It is a place, a stage, a forum and a shrine ... a place to which powerful people can repair when they are fearful about the course on which their own rhetoric seems to be propelling them.”
—Conor Cruise O’Brien (b. 1917)

“It was a pretty game, played on the smooth surface of the pond, a man against a loon.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
