Games Day Award

Famous quotes containing the words games, day and/or award:

    In 1600 the specialization of games and pastimes did not extend beyond infancy; after the age of three or four it decreased and disappeared. From then on the child played the same games as the adult, either with other children or with adults. . . . Conversely, adults used to play games which today only children play.
    Philippe Ariés (20th century)

    Life death does end and each day dies with sleep.
    Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)

    The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.
