Game Quotes

“The game is a thread, microscopic in breadth, a hint of gossamer drawing unsuspecting souls together in simple competition to the exclusion of all else, from a mother and infant playing peekaboo to two old men hunched over a chessboard and everything in between. And finally, it is the game's presence and past and its memory that inspires each of us to forgive time and aging and their inevitable accompanying attrition because the gray and hobbled old man before me was once lean and powerful and magnificent and some of what became of him was due to the investment he made in me...”

“Contrary to many societal teachings, there is no conquering grief. It’s impossible to “win” at an emotional experience like loss, because grief is not that kind of game. The object of grief is not to make the grief go away, but to expand your heart to make room for it. When you live with an expanded heart, there is room for you and your grief to exist side by side.”

“মনে হয় সৃষ্টির গভীরতম কারণটা ঈশ্বর মানুষের কাছ থেকে চিরদিনের জন্য আড়াল করে রেখেছেন। সে রহস্য জানতে পারলে সৃষ্টির আর কোনও সার্থকতা থাকবে না। গোলকধাম খেলেছ তো? সেই যে কড়ি চেলে, কাগজে ছাপা ছকের ওপর গুটি এগিয়ে নিয়ে খেলা। জন্ম থেকে শুরু হয়ে বিদ্যালয়, কর্মক্ষেত্র, আদালত, পতিতালয়, শৌণ্ডিকালয়, মন্দির ইত্যাদির খোপে আঁকা ঘর পেরিয়ে খেলুড়েকে একটু একটু করে ওপরে উঠতে হয়। সবচেয়ে ওপরের খোপের নাম হচ্ছে গোলকধাম। সেখানে পৌছলেই খেলা শেষ। তারপর ছক আর গুটি তুলে ফেলা ছাড়া আর কিছু করার থাকে না। আমাদের জীবনও তাই। সবকিছু জেনে ফেললেই খেলা শেষ। সেটা ভগবান চান না। তা একদিক থেকে ভালই, খেলা চলছে চলুক না।”

“In any game, the game itself is the prize, no matter who wins, ultimately both lose the game.”

“The 32 Society by Stewart Stafford Fight to the last piece, they said, Icons of state bring up the rear, Grunt pawn's first blood duty, Let the board's body count commence. Equine knight in dog-legged battle, Warrior bishop's angular support, Scorpion's claw pincer movement, Then, the trap slams mercilessly shut. The field wiped clean of combatants, The aristocracy's barren playground, Royals tour their chequered court, Pieces reassembled as war restarts. © Stewart Stafford, 2024. All rights reserved.”

“I brush a strand of hair from her face, then move beside her. When she wraps her arms around my neck, all I want to do is protect this girl for the rest of my life. I ease her jacket open and lean away. A pink lace bra stares back at me. Nothing else. "Como un angel," I whisper. "Is our game over?" she asks nervously. "It's definitely over, querida. 'Cause what we're gonna do next is no game.”

“When Louise returned to the Aviary the others were playing the game of what character in fiction Peter Mir reminded them of. 'I think he's Mr Pickwick,' said Louise. 'Oh no! Never!' said Sefton. 'I think he's more like Prospero.' 'I think he's the Green Knight,' said Aleph. 'Come on, Moy, what do you think?' 'I think he's the Minotaur.' 'The Minotaur isn't a literary character, he's a mythical character,' Sefton objected. 'Oh really — !' 'What does Clement think?' said Aleph. 'I think he's Mephistopheles,' said Clement. 'Surely not, he's so nice!' said Louise.”

“You want to kill me?? - So I guess that truth hurts, but why it hurts? Lie doesn't but truth does?? How does it happen?? So you go... you say "Well, well pretty nice made knife..." and you are looking it by moving it like rotate and such type of stuff and one moment you want to kill me. But why?? Is it because I just "I lived" or it was because of "Listen" or it was because of "The Walk"?? or what's the answer?”

“When what one does, reps, or 'spits', repetitively, is foul or beastly - one summons spiritual undertakers to dine on fleshly parasites. In various forms, nature's law purges all that becomes wasteful. Change your game, or the game will change you.”
