“In football they measure forty-yard sprints. Nobody runs forty yards in basketball. Maybe you run the ninety-four feet of the court; then you stop, not on a dime, but on Miss Liberty’s torch. In football you run over somebody’s face.”
—Donald Hall (b. 1928)
“I see my reputation is at stake,
My fame is shrewdly gored.”

And from his brows damps of oblivion shed
Full on the filial dullness:”
