World Wide Wrestling

Famous quotes containing the words world, wide and/or wrestling:

    The world of crime ... is a last refuge of the authentic, uncorrupted, spontaneous event.
    Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)

    Alone, alone, all, all alone,
    Alone on a wide wide sea!
    And never a saint took pity on
    My soul in agony.
    Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    There are people who think that wrestling is an ignoble sport. Wrestling is not sport, it is a spectacle, and it is no more ignoble to attend a wrestled performance of suffering than a performance of the sorrows of Arnolphe or Andromaque.
    Roland Barthes (1915–1980)
