Goal Scored

Famous quotes containing the words goal and/or scored:

    Religion means goal and way, politics implies end and means. The political end is recognizable by the fact that it may be attained—in success—and its attainment is historically recorded. The religious goal remains, even in man’s highest experiences, that which simply provides direction on the mortal way; it never enters into historical consummation.
    Martin Buber (1878–1965)

    It could be said that the AIDS pandemic is a classic own-goal scored by the human race against itself.
    —(B. 1950)
