Light Welterweight Champion

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or champion:

    What is love itself,
    Even though it be the lightest of light love,
    But dreams that hurry from beyond the world
    To make low laughter more than meat and drink,
    Though it but set us sighing?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    What a terrible thing has happened to us all! To you there, to us here, to all everywhere. Peace who was becoming bright-eyed, now sits in the shadow of death; her handsome champion has been killed as he walked by her very side. Her gallant boy is dead. What a cruel, foul, and most unnatural murder! We mourn here with you, poor, sad American people.
    Sean O’Casey (1884–1964)
