Playing Surface

Famous quotes containing the words playing and/or surface:

“Oh, somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright,
The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light;
And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout,
But there is no joy in Mudville—Mighty Casey has struck
out.”

“These wonderful things
Were planted on the surface of a round mind that was to become our present time.”
