Piss Poor Performance

Famous quotes containing the words poor and/or performance:

    “Give me the free and poor inheritance
    Of our own kind, not furniture
    Of education, or the prophet’s pose,
    The general cause of words, the hero’s stance,
    The ambitions incommensurable with flesh,”
    —Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

    “There are people who think that wrestling is an ignoble sport. Wrestling is not sport, it is a spectacle, and it is no more ignoble to attend a wrestled performance of suffering than a performance of the sorrows of Arnolphe or Andromaque.”
    —Roland Barthes (1915–1980)
