World Match Play

Famous quotes containing the words world, match and/or play:

    The world is gradually becoming a place
    Where I do not care to be any more.

    “I do not like him.”MWhy?—”I am no match for him.”MHas a person ever answered in this way?
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Living in cities is an art, and we need the vocabulary of art, of style, to describe the peculiar relationship between man and material that exists in the continual creative play of urban living. The city as we imagine it, then, soft city of illusion, myth, aspiration, and nightmare, is as real, maybe more real, than the hard city one can locate on maps in statistics, in monographs on urban sociology and demography and architecture.
    Jonathan Raban (b. 1942)
