Winter Sports

Famous quotes containing the words winter and/or sports:

    all ignorance toboggans into know
    and trudges up to ignorance again:
    but winter’s not forever, even snow
    melts; and if spring should spoil the game, what then?

    all history’s a winter sport or three:
    —E.E. (Edward Estlin)

    In the past, it seemed to make sense for a sportswriter on sabbatical from the playpen to attend the quadrennial hawgkilling when Presidential candidates are chosen, to observe and report upon politicians at play. After all, national conventions are games of a sort, and sports offers few spectacles richer in low comedy.
    Walter Wellesley (Red)
