Famous quotes containing the words world and/or champions:

    “The world is chaos. Nothingness is the yet-to-be-born god of the world.”
    —Georg Büchner (1813–1837)

    “Did all the lets and bars appear
    To every just or larger end,
    Whence should come the trust and cheer?
    Youth must its ignorant impulse lend—
    Age finds place in the rear.
    All wars are boyish, and are fought by boys,
    The champions and enthusiasts of the state:”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)
