Famous quotes containing the words famous and/or players:

    Those famous men of old, the Ogres—
    They had long beards and stinking arm-pits,
    They were wide-mouthed, long-yarded and great-bellied
    Yet not of taller stature, Sirs, than you.
    Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    People stress the violence. That’s the smallest part of it. Football is brutal only from a distance. In the middle of it there’s a calm, a tranquility. The players accept pain. There’s a sense of order even at the end of a running play with bodies stewn everywhere. When the systems interlock, there’s a satisfaction to the game that can’t be duplicated. There’s a harmony.
    Don Delillo (b. 1926)
