Famous quotes containing the words yard, field and/or goal:

    “He slipped his hand and ran away!
    He hadn’t gone a yard when—Bang!

    And hungrily began to eat
    The boy: beginning at his feet.”
    —Hilaire Belloc (1870–1953)

    “There is a call to life a little sterner,
    And braver for the earner, learner, yearner.
    Less criticism of the field and court
    And more preoccupation with the sport.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Postmodern agenda: the peep show is the art form; the voyeur is the protagonist; the goal is excitement from a safe distance; the alibi is that it’s all ironic.”
