Famous quotes containing the words professional and/or bouts:
“The professional celebrity, male and female, is the crowning result of the star system of a society that makes a fetish of competition. In America, this system is carried to the point where a man who can knock a small white ball into a series of holes in the ground with more efficiency than anyone else thereby gains social access to the President of the United States.”
—C. Wright Mills (1916–1962)
“I reject all evidence that my fabulous beloved is an ordinary person who worries, watches TV, and has bouts of indigestion.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
