Who can map out the various forces at play in one soul? Man is a great depth, O Lord. The hairs of his head are easier by far to count than his feeling, the movements of his heart.
Saint Augustine

Each player must accept the cards life deals him or her: but once they are in hand, he or she alone must decide how to play the cards in order to win the game.
Voltaire

Anyone who seeks to destroy the passions instead of controlling them is trying to play the angel.

Tom Landry

A play should give you something to think about. When I see a play and understand it the first time, then I know it can't be much good.
T. S. Eliot

Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, it is war minus the shooting.
George Orwell

The last act is bloody, however pleasant all the rest of the play is: a little earth is thrown at last upon our head, and that is the end forever.
Blaise Pascal

It is very lonely sometimes, trying to play God.
Oliver Wendell Holmes

You need to play with supreme confidence, or else you'll lose again, and then losing becomes a habit.
Joe Paterno

It is utterly false and cruelly arbitrary to put all the play and learning into childhood, all the work into middle age, and all the regrets into old age.
Margaret Mead

Give a critic an inch, he'll write a play.
John Steinbeck
