Won World Series

Famous quotes containing the words won, world and/or series:

    What then in love can woman do?
    If we grow fond they shun us.
    And when we fly them, they pursue:
    But leave us when they’ve won us.
    John Gay (1685–1732)

    The extent to which a parent is able to see a child’s world through that child’s eyes depends very much on the parent’s ability to appreciate the differences between herself and her child and to respect those differences. Your own children need you to accept them for who they are, not who you would like them to be.
    Lawrence Balter (20th century)

    As Cuvier could correctly describe a whole animal by the contemplation of a single bone, so the observer who has thoroughly understood one link in a series of incidents should be able to accurately state all the other ones, both before and after.
    Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
