Quotation of the Day for June 8, 2010



"I have travelled the world to watch soccer and write about it, and celebrate it. Yet it is here, blocks away from my home, that I know, heartscalded, the terrible meaning of it all. The game brings joy, breaks your heart, brings joy, breaks your heart, brings joy, breaks your heart...The meaning whirls and turns as the ball does; as the world does."

- John Doyle, television critic, from his 2010 memoir, The World is a Ball, on being a soccer fan and covering the World Cup.
