I'd love to eat them on my sofa, transported to a little trattoria.
Clair-Hope AshiteyThis sport is just as much about your teammates as you and your individual performance.
Mia HammIf you look like your passport photo you're too ill to travel.
Joe PasqualeSports beget tumultuous strife and wrath, and wrath begets fierce quarrels.
HoraceThe only athletic sport I ever mastered was backgammon.
Douglas William JerroldI'm afraid I'm not really interested in starting off someone's career and trying to turn a nobody into a someone. All my expertise, and all my recent knowledge, lies at the top end of the sport.
Colin JacksonGreat sport has intellectual beauty.
R CarlisleBy working with Stella McCartney I have been able to combine two things that are important to me - my sport and my style.
Maria KirilenkoThere is something for everyone in sports.
Arnold BeisserI'm fanatical about sport: there seems to me something almost religious about the fact that human beings can organize play, the spirit of play.
Simon GrayBaseball was the one sport my dad shared with us as kids.
Marvin BushDavid transcends the sport and is a cultural icon. David is clearly one of the most recognisable athletes in the world. People are going to feel really good about David Beckham spending the rest of his career in the US.
Frank YallopSports broadcasters are the only reporters who describe past events in the future tense.
Burnett AndersonSuch challenges [test cricket] require people who are more than 100% committed, dedicated, disciplined and passionate about the game, what it seeks to achieve and how those involved in the game can best serve cricket, sport and the wider community. [On retiring from test cricket]
Damien MartynOne of the strange things about winning gold in this sport is that people know you more in other countries than in your own.
Bob HayesYour sex shouldn't matter when it comes to sport. If you put in the effort to train hard, whether you are male or female, you deserve the rewards.
Rain MakoI have recently taken up two new sports: roller skating and ankle spraining, in that order. I am getting quite good at both.
Miles KingtonFor I must go where lazy Peace
Will hide her drowsy head;
And, for the sport of kings, increase

William DavenantBoxing is the beginning of all sports. I'm willing to bet that the first sport was a man against another man in a fight.
Omar EppsThere are people who put their own dismal prejudices, their half-baked colonial chippiness and their enjoyment of the agreeable futilities of sport ahead of these terrible things.
Simon BarnesI'm glad to say that this is the first Saturday in four weeks that sport will be weather-free [classic Colemanball!]
David ColemanI agree with women's rugby. At an early age, I think girls are better and more skilful players than boys. Whether the game goes professional or not is a difficult one because obviously you need a support base, and the support base in Wales at the moment is generally for male rugby. But I've got no issue with women playing rugby - it's a great sport that should be played by everyone.
Gareth ThomasOne thing that rugby is generally is incredibly fair, and with it being a team sport no individual is bigger than the game itself
Jeremy GuscottDon't be surprised if I demur, for, be advised my passport's green. No glass of ours was ever raised to toast The Queen.
Seamus HeaneyI played in a golf charity match to raise money for a boy injured in a car accident. I had to drive like a lunatic to get here. [Ironically explaining why he was late for a talksport show]
Ray HoughtonI'd seen it on top of the pops [son of my father]. The band were proper platform heeleed, tank top sporting, chest wig wearing glam rockers, and I'm pretty sure it was top of the charts for several weeks.
Hugh Fearnley-whittingstallAll sports are games of inches.
Dick RitgerBodybuilding is much like any other sport. To be successful, you must dedicate yourself 100% to your training, diet and mental approach.
Arnold SchwarzeneggerUnlike any other business in the United States, sports must preserve an illusion of perfect innocence.
Lewis H LaphamCards are war, in disguise of a sport
Charles LambThere is more energy locked up in sources around the solar system than we could ever reasonably expect to need, the problem would be transporting them back to earth and using them in a cost efficient manner.
Wilson GreatbatchI'm glad you're doing this story on us and not on the WNBA. We're so much prettier than all the other women in sports.
Martina HingisSure, winning isn't everything. It's the only thing. (Sports Illustrated, 1955)
Henry SandersMy successes in the Army are owing in great measure to the manly sports of Great Britain, and one sport above all - cricket.
Arthur Wellesley WellingtonAll sports for all people.
Baron Pierre De CoubertinTransportation made sublimation literal. It conveyed evil to another world.
Robert HughesThe Minister of Transport issued this appeal to motorists: Can anyone give him a lift to Leicester?

Has peace and transport to my soul restor'd.
Lord George LyttletonHe'll go down as one of the guys who changed our sport in a lot of ways, not only the way he played the game, but also the way that he conducted himself on and off the court.
Lleyton HewittEven now I want to keep my amateur spirit, to spend my time, to be in the sport with all my heart.
Sergei BubkaI don't watch movies a lot. I watch sporting events. Because you can never tell how they're going to end.
Michael DouglasWe're used to comeback stories in the world of sports, but the Gail Devers story is remarkable. This is a comeback from an illness which almost killed her.
Bob CostasHe mistrusts anyone who reads past the sports pages of the tabloids [on Mickey Stewart]
Peter RoebuckIt will send a clear message to those who would seek to exploit athletes: get out of the sports world now or go to jail.
Howard BermanNot only do they know nothing about football, but if you were to shut them up in a room by themselves, they couldn't even write a letter to mother [on sports journalists]
Cesar MenottiSport is life to the nth degree.
Neil OffenWhen people come together, go to each other's country, and watch a conflict being played out on the field of sport, as opposed to the field of battle... then why can't that same spirit, that same philosophy, infect other aspects of relations? [Hoping India and Pakistan would develop their relationship off the pitch]
Colin PowellIt is a poor sport that is not worth a candle.
George HerbertSunday league cricket: multi-coloured pyjamas, two tone umpires, and white balls with black seams. There is nothing like traditional English sport.
