State Football Title

Famous quotes containing the words state, football and/or title:

    “It is almost never when a state of things is the most detestable that it is smashed, but when, beginning to improve, it permits men to breathe, to reflect, to communicate their thoughts with each other, and to gauge by what they already have the extent of their rights and their grievances. The weight, although less heavy, seems then all the more unbearable.”
    —Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)

    exactly at the moment when
    they first attained the title of
    ‘suffering humanity’”
