Famous quotes containing the words world, champion and/or boxer:
“The world rolls round,—mistrust it not,—
Befalls again what once befell;

And I shall hear my bluebird’s note,
And dream the dream of Auburn dell.”

—Tallulah Bankhead (1903–1968)
“Whoever gets up and comes to grips with Love like a boxer is a fool.”
