Playing Superman

Famous quotes containing the words playing and/or superman:

“The sailor is frankness, the landsman is finesse. Life is not a game with the sailor, demanding the long head—no intricate game of chess where few moves are made in straight-forwardness and ends are attained by indirection, an oblique, tedious, barren game hardly worth that poor candle burnt out in playing it.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)

“It’s men like you that make it difficult for people to understand one another.”
—Richard Fielding, and Lee Sholem. Superman (George Reeves)
