Golden Panthers Football

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or football:

“Fondnesse it were for any being free,
To covet fetters, though they golden bee.”
—Edmund Spenser (1552?–1599)

“People stress the violence. That’s the smallest part of it. Football is brutal only from a distance. In the middle of it there’s a calm, a tranquility. The players accept pain. There’s a sense of order even at the end of a running play with bodies stewn everywhere. When the systems interlock, there’s a satisfaction to the game that can’t be duplicated. There’s a harmony.”
—Don Delillo (b. 1926)
