Famous quotes containing the words sports and/or people:

    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)

    Who can think of the sun costuming clouds
    When all people are shaken
    Or of night endazzled, proud,
    When people awaken
    And cry and cry for help?
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
