“I am very obsessed with ballet now because it is a very difficult sport and a beautiful one because it is not about money. It's not like playing football or tennis - dance has no sponsors, it's just for the beauty. Maybe it is the only last pure sport.” LastsBeautifulSportsDifficultFootballPureObsessedTennisBalletSponsorsPlaying Football Author:Carine Roitfeld
“I don't think you can explain why all these other sports and college basketball have a fair representation of African American coaches, but college football doesn't.

“So [Polaroid's Dr. Edwin] Land, at 75, went off to spend the remainder of his life doing pure science, trying to crack the code of color vision. The man is a national treasure.

“Doping in English football is restricted to lager and baked beans with sausages. After which the players take to the field, belching and farting.

“Women: I liked the colors of their clothing; the way they walked; the cruelty in some faces; now and then the almost pure beauty in another face, totally and enchantingly female. They had it over us: they planned much better and were better organized. While men were watching professional football or drinking beer or bowling, they, the women, were thinking about us, concentrating, studying, deciding - whether to accept us, discard us, exchange us, kill us or whether simply to leave us. In the end it hardly mattered; no matter what they did, we ended up lonely and insane.” ThinkingMenWayEndsMatterFacesAcceptingStudyFootballColorPureFemaleLonelyNo Matter WhatDrinkingCrueltyInsaneBeerOrganizedClothingsNow And ThenConcentratingBowlingDrinking Beer Author:Charles Bukowski
