“When all choice is taken from you, life becomes a game of survival.”

“It is amazing how, when all possibilities seem to be taken away from you, the minutest opening can become a great freedom.”

“Life truly becomes exactly what you make it. All the choices lead to the reality you are experiencing.”

“There comes a point when you stop thinking of you playing the game, and you simply become a part of – and merge into – and become lost in – the game.”

“Life to me is the greatest of all games. The dangerlies in treating it as a trivial game, a gameto be taken lightly, and a game in which therules don’t matter much. The rules matter agreat deal. The game has to be played fairly orit is no game at all. And even to win the gameis not the chief end. The chief end is to win ithonorably and splendidly.”

“Any game becomes important when you know and love the players.”
