“When ice appears out of doors, and boys seize it up while it is solid, at first they experience new pleasures. But in the end their pride will not agree to let it go, but their acquisition is not good for them if it stays in their hands. In the same way an identical desire drives lovers to act and not to act.” IfsWayFirstsEndsHandsDesirePleasureBoysDoorsPrideLoversAgreeIceLet It GoIdenticalAcquisition Book:Sophocles: Fragments Source: Sophocles: Fragments
“People abhor boxing, and I agree, but I admire men and women who can stand in a ring like that, nowhere to hide. I've only been to a couple of boxing matches, and they're different from any other event. I'm not there to see blood; I'm there for the heart of someone being able to get up and keep going. And for the respect that's often there in the end.” PeopleMenHeartDifferentEndsAbleBloodEventsCoupleMen And WomenAgreeRingsAdmireGet UpBoxingKeep GoingBoxing Matches Author:Markus Zusak
