In the attack, he maintained Jairzinho and substituted the other two players.

—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
“Sunday morning may be cheery enough, with its extra cup of coffee and litter of Sunday newspapers, but there is always hanging over it the ominous threat of 3 P.M., when the sun gets around to the back windows and life stops dead in its tracks.”
