Gaming Quotes (page 41)

To read fiction means to play a game by which we give sense to the immensity of things that happened, are happening, or will happen in the actual world. By reading narrative, we escape the anxiety that attacks us when we try to say something true about the world. This is the consoling function of narrative? the reason people tell stories, and have told stories from the beginning of time. Umberto Eco
Every time you take a step, even when you don't want to. . . . When it hurts, when it means you rub chins with death, or even if it means dying, that's good. Anything that moves ahead, wins. No chess game was ever won by the player who sat for a lifetime thinking over his next move. Ray Bradbury
Charles Baudelaire quote: "Life has but one true charm: the charm of the game. But what..."
Life has but one true charm: the charm of the game. But what if we’re indifferent to whether we win or lose? Charles Baudelaire

This thing called Contrmporary America--and its obsession with televisions, game systems, and computers_has gone a littlr far if you ask me. Some call it the Information Age, but I'd tend to say it's more the Sitting-on-one's-butt-and-letting-other-people-do-the-thinking-for-you Age. James Patterson
Dream or nightmare, we have to live our experience as it is, and we have to live it awake. We live in a world which is penetrated through and through by science and which is both whole and real. We cannot turn it into a game simple by taking sides. Jacob Bronowski

George R. R. Martin quote: "Better to mock the game than to play and lose."
Better to mock the game than to play and lose. George R. R. Martin
The nights you fight best arewhen all the weapons are pointed at you, when all the voices hurl their insultswhile the dream is being strangled. The nights you fight best arewhen reason gets kicked in the gut, when the chariots of gloom encircle you. The nights you fight best arewhen the laughter of fools fills the air, when the kiss of death is mistaken for love. The nights you fight best arewhen the game is fixed, when the crowd screams for your blood. The nights you fight best areon a night... Charles Bukowski
Suzanne Collins quote: "Let the Hunger Games Begin!"
Let the Hunger Games Begin! Suzanne Collins
Gods play games with the fates of men. But first they have to get all the pieces on the board and look all over the place for the dice. Terry Prachett
No. No games. He wanted her and didn't care who knew it. He definitely and absolutely wanted her, longed for her, wanted to do more things than there were names for with her. Douglas Adams
As sure as this Earth is turnin, souls burnin / In search of higher learnin, turnin in every direction seeking direction / My moms cryin cause her insides are dyin / Her son tryin her patience, keep her heart racin / A million beats a minute, I know I push you to your limit / But it's this game, love—I'm caught up all in it / They make it so you can't prevent it, never give it / You gotta take it, can't fake it, I keep it authentic Jay-Z

In a way, it is beautiful to be young and hard up. With the right wife, and I had her, deprivation became a game. Wallace Stegner
