State Champions

Famous quotes containing the words state and/or champions:

“To flatter and follow others, without being flattered and followed in turn, is but a state of half enjoyment.”
—Jane Austen (1775–1817)

“Myths and legends die hard in America. We love them for the extra dimension they provide, the illusion of near-infinite possibility to erase the narrow confines of most men’s reality. Weird heroes and mould-breaking champions exist as living proof to those who need it that the tyranny of “the rat race” is not yet final.”
—Hunter S. Thompson (b. 1939)
