Famous quotes containing the words total and/or strength:
“It is not an exaggeration to say that play is as basic to your child’s total development as good food, cleanliness, and rest.”
—Joanne E. Oppenheim (20th century)
“Sport in the sense of a mass-spectacle, with death to add to the underlying excitement, comes into existence when a population has been drilled and regimented and depressed to such an extent that it needs at least a vicarious participation in difficult feats of strength or skill or heroism in order to sustain its waning life-sense.”
—Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)
