Famous quotes containing the words support and/or systems:
““If only I had a wife!” I used to think, “who could stay home and keep the children happy, why I could support six of them. A cinch.””
—Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)
“People stress the violence. That’s the smallest part of it. Football is brutal only from a distance. In the middle of it there’s a calm, a tranquility. The players accept pain. There’s a sense of order even at the end of a running play with bodies stewn everywhere. When the systems interlock, there’s a satisfaction to the game that can’t be duplicated. There’s a harmony.”
—Don Delillo (b. 1926)
