World Wide Wrestling

Famous quotes containing the words world, wide and/or wrestling:

    The predicate of truth-value of a proposition, therefore, is a mere fictive quality; its place is in an ideal world of science only, whereas actual science cannot make use of it. Actual science instead employs throughout the predicate of weight.
    Hans Reichenbach (1891–1953)

    Yet therein now doth lodge a noble peer,
    Great England’s glory and the world’s wide wonder,
    Whose dreadful name late through all Spain did thunder,
    Edmund Spenser (1552?–1599)

    There are people who think that wrestling is an ignoble sport. Wrestling is not sport, it is a spectacle, and it is no more ignoble to attend a wrestled performance of suffering than a performance of the sorrows of Arnolphe or Andromaque.
    Roland Barthes (1915–1980)
