State Football Title

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

    “Oh, the holiness of always being the injured party. The historically oppressed can find not only sanctity but safety in the state of victimization. When access to a better life has been denied often enough, and successfully enough, one can use the rejection as an excuse to cease all efforts. After all, one reckons, “they” don’t want me, “they” accept their own mediocrity and refuse my best, “they” don’t deserve me.”
    —Maya Angelou (b. 1928)

    “... in the minds of search committees there is the lingering question: Can she manage the football coach?”
    —Donna E. Shalala (b. 1941)

    “That title of respect
    Which the proud soul ne’er pays but to the proud.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
