Famous quotes containing the words university and/or games:
“It is the goal of the American university to be the brains of the republic.”
—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
“As long as lightly all their livelong sessions,
Like a yardful of schoolboys out at recess
Before their plays and games were organized,
They yelling mix tag, hide-and-seek, hopscotch,
And leapfrog in each other’s way all’s well.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
