All imagination ... A lot of us seem to lose that spirit of play.  Lose that spirit of imagination.  Ken Dodd

 

 

Tell me, Miss Trench, do you play any other games?  Dr No 1962 starring Sean Connery & Ursula Andress & Jack Lord & Joseph Wiseman & Bernard Lee & Anthony Dawson & John Kitzmiller & Zena Marshall & Eunice Gayson & Louis Maxwell & Peter Burtonn et al, director Terence Young, James

 

 

When you play the game of thrones you win or you die.  There is no middle ground.  Game of Thrones s1e7: You Win or Your Die, Queen to Bean, HBO 2011

 

 

Him: Do you play?

 

Her: Try me.  The Thomas Crown Affair 1968 starring Steve McQueen & Faye Dunaway & Paul Burke & Jack Weston & Gordon Pinsent & Biff McGuire & Yaphet Kotto & Addison Powell et al, director Norman Jewison

 

Let’s play something else.  ibid.  him to her

 

 

You played it for her, you can play it for me.  Casablanca 1942 ***** starring Humphrey Bogart & Ingrid Bergman & Paul Henreid & Claude Rains & Conrad Veidt & Sydney Greenstreet & Peter Lorre & Curt Bois et al, director Michael Curtiz  

 

 

What revels are in hand?  Is there no play,

To ease the anguish of a torturing hour?  William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night’s Dream V i 36

 

 

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.  Mid-17th century proverb

 

 

A player or nothing.  Wall Street 1987 starring Michael Douglas & Charlie Sheen & Martin Sheen & Daryl Hannah & John C McGinley & Terence Stamp & James Karen & Hal Holbrook & Sean Young & James Spader et al, director Oliver Stone, Gordon Gecko to Bud

 

 

Combinatory play seems to be the essential feature in productive thought.  Albert Einstein

 

 

You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation.  Plato 

 

 

Old boys have their playthings as well as young ones; the difference is only in the price.  Benjamin Franklin

 

 

In our country, true teams rarely exist ... Social barriers and personal ambitions have reduced athletes to dissolute cliques or individuals thrown together for mutual profit ... Yet these rugby players, with their muddied, cracked bodies, are struggling to hold on to a sense of humanity that we in America have lost and are unlikely to regain.  The game may only be to move a ball forward on a dirt field, but the task can be accomplished with an unshackled joy and its memories will be a permanent delight.  The women and men who play on that rugby field are more alive than too many of us will ever be. The foolish emptiness we think we perceive in their existence is only our own.  Victor Cahn  

 

 

The Gatling’s jammed and the Colonel dead

And the regiment blind with dust and smoke;

The river of death has brimmed his banks,

And England’s far, and Honour a name;

But the voice of a schoolboy rallies the ranks:

‘Play up! play up! and play the game!’  Henry Newbolt, Vitai Lampada   

 

 

The work of a team should always embrace a great player but the great player must always work.  Alex Ferguson

 

 

If their work is satisfying people don’t need leisure in the old-fashioned sense.  No one ever asks what Newton or Darwin did to relax, or how Bach spent his weekends.  At Eden-Olympia work is the ultimate play, and play the ultimate work.  J G Ballard, Super-Cannes

 

 

I’ll never play at Wembley again, unless I play at Wembley again.  Kevin Keegan

 

 

When David Beckham leaves the game, it will take a very special player to come in and carry the mantelpiece.  Sophie Nicolau

 

 

They didn’t change positions, they just moved the players around.  Terry Venables

 

 

Ive told the players we need to win so that I can have the cash to buy some new ones.  Chris Turner, Peterborough manager, shortly before League Cup quarter-final 1992

 

 

Yes, he is not unused to playing in midfield, but at the same time he’s not used to playing there either.  Emlyn Hughes

 

 

The true man wants two things – danger and play.  For that reason he wants woman as the most dangerous plaything.  Friedrich Nietzsche
