Years Played Annually

Famous quotes containing the words years, played and/or annually:

    Peace can endure only so long as humanity really insists upon it, and is willing to work for it and sacrifice for it. Twenty- five years ago American fighting men looked to the statesmen of the world to finish the work of peace for which they fought and suffered; we failed them, we failed them then, we cannot fail them again and expect the world to survive again.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    Miss J. Hunter Dunn, Miss J. Hunter Dunn,
    Furnish’d and burnish’d by Aldershot sun,
    What strenuous singles we played after tea,
    We in the tournament—you against me!
    Sir John Betjeman (1906–1984)

    It’s all very well to dream of a dove that saves,
    Picasso’s or the Pope’s
    The one that annually coos in Our Lady’s ear
    Half the world’s hopes,
    Anthony Hecht (b. 1923)
