Famous quotes containing the words excellent and/or master:
“I’ve tried not to exaggerate the glory of athletes. I’d rather, if I could, preserve a sense of proportion, to write about them as excellent ballplayers, first-rate players. But I’m sure I have contributed to false values—as Stanley Woodward said, “Godding up those ballplayers.”
The sun shone, having no alternative, on the nothing new.”
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
“My master is of churlish disposition,
And little recks to find the way to heaven
By doing deeds of hospitality.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
