World Heavyweight Champion

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or champion:

    We have given the world our passion,
    We have naught for death but toys.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    What a terrible thing has happened to us all! To you there, to us here, to all everywhere. Peace who was becoming bright-eyed, now sits in the shadow of death; her handsome champion has been killed as he walked by her very side. Her gallant boy is dead. What a cruel, foul, and most unnatural murder! We mourn here with you, poor, sad American people.
    Sean O’Casey (1884–1964)
