Famous quotes containing the words hidden, object and/or game:
“... it is a rather curious thing to have to divide one’s life into personal and official compartments and temporarily put the personal side into its hidden compartment to be taken out again when one’s official duties are at an end.”
—Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
“My object all sublime I shall achieve in time—
To let the punishment fit the crime— The punishment fit the crime; And make each prisoner pent Unwillingly represent
A source of innocent merriment! Of innocent merriment!”
—Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)
“Life is a game in which the rules are constantly changing; nothing spoils a game more than those who take it seriously. Adultery? Phooey! You should never subjugate yourself to another nor seek the subjugation of someone else to yourself. If you follow that Crispian principle you will be able to say “Phooey,” too, instead of reaching for your gun when you fancy yourself betrayed.”
—Quentin Crisp (b. 1908)
