Piss Poor Performance

Famous quotes containing the words poor and/or performance:

    And offered her a home to rest awhile
    Before she went the poor man’s widow’s way,
    Housekeeping for the next man out of wedlock.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Tennis is more than just a sport. It’s an art, like the ballet. Or like a performance in the theater. When I step on the court I feel like Anna Pavlova. Or like Adelina Patti. Or even like Sarah Bernhardt. I see the footlights in front of me. I hear the whisperings of the audience. I feel an icy shudder. Win or die! Now or never! It’s the crisis of my life.
    Bill Tilden (1893–1953)
