White Field

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or field:

    Boom, steal the pygmies,
    Boom, kill the Arabs,
    Boom, kill the white men,
    Vachel Lindsay (1879–1931)

    I don’t like comparisons with football. Baseball is an entirely different game. You can watch a tight, well-played football game, but it isn’t exciting if half the stadium is empty. The violence on the field must bounce off a lot of people. But you can go to a ball park on a quiet Tuesday afternoon with only a few thousand people in the place and thoroughly enjoy a one-sided game. Baseball has an aesthetic, intellectual appeal found in no other team sport.
    Bowie Kuhn (b. 1926)
