Champion Race Car

Famous quotes containing the words champion, race and/or car:

    But now Miss America, World’s champion woman, you take your promenading self down into the cobalt blue waters of the Caribbean and see what happens. You meet a lot of darkish men who make vociferous love to you, but otherwise pay you no mid.
    Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)

    Spring, of all seasons most gratuitous,
    Is fold of untaught flower, is race of water,
    Is earth’s most multiple, excited daughter;
    And those she has least use for see her best,
    Their paths grown craven and circuitous,
    Their visions mountain-clear, their needs immodest.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Fifty years from now, it will not matter what kind of car you drove, what kind of house you lived in, how much you had in your bank account, or what your clothes looked like, But the world may be a little better because you were important in the life of a child.
    —Anonymous. Quoted in The Winning Family, by Louise Hart, ch. 1 (1987)
