Strong Players

Famous quotes containing the words strong and/or players:

    All the strong agonized men
    Wear the hard clothes of war,
    Try to remember what they are fighting for.
    But in dark weeping helpless moments of peace
    Women and poets believe and resist forever.
    Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)

    I do not like football, which I think of as a game in which two tractors approach each other from opposite directions and collide. Besides, I have contempt for a game in which players have to wear so much equipment. Men play basketball in their underwear, which seems just right to me.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
