Famous quotes containing the words world and/or champions:
“Philosophers are people who do violence, but have no army at their disposal, and so subjugate the world by locking it into a system.”
—Robert Musil (1880–1942)
“Myths and legends die hard in America. We love them for the extra dimension they provide, the illusion of near-infinite possibility to erase the narrow confines of most men’s reality. Weird heroes and mould-breaking champions exist as living proof to those who need it that the tyranny of “the rat race” is not yet final.”
—Hunter S. Thompson (b. 1939)
