Football Hurt Games

More From George Orwell

There are several differences between a football game and a revolution. for one thing, a football game usually lasts longer and the participants wear uniforms. also, there are usually more casualties in a football game. the object of the game is to move a ball past the other team's goal line. this counts as six points. no points are given for lacerations, contusions, or abrasions, but then no points are deducted, either. kicking is very important in football. in fact, some of the more enthusiastic players even kick the ball, occasionally.

There is no enemy can hurt us but by our own hands. satan could not hurt us, if our own corruption betrayed us not. afflictions cannot hurt us without our own impatience. temptations cannot hurt us, without our own yieldance. death could not hurt us, without the sting of our own sins. sins could not hurt us, without our own impenitence.

The americans are poor haters in international affairs because of their innate feeling of superiority over all foreigners. an american's hatred for a fellow american is far more virulent than any antipathy he can work up against foreigners. should americans begin to hate foreigners wholeheartedly, it will be an indication that they have lost confidence in their own way of life.

Writing is like a contact sport, like football. why do kids play football? they can get hurt on any play, can't they? yet they can't wait until saturday comes around so they can play on the high school team, or the college team, and get smashed around. writing is like that. you can get hurt, but you enjoy it!

Everyone feels awkward, everyone feels uncomfortable, everyone gets older, everyone gets lonely, everyone gets sick, everyone eventually dies. you’re at the aspen ideas fest, and you have these really smart, really accomplished people who pretend like they’ve somehow figured out a way to bypass the human condition. we live in this culture where there are so many things that want us to pretend that we’re not truly human.

Writing is an incredibly lonely job.
Lonely Jobs Writing
The harder the circumstances under which you're making a movie, generally the better the friends you make. you're far away from home and so you're kind of lonely, and you end up all gravitating towards each other and the bar every night. it tends to be inversely proportionate to the comfort level on the movie, how close you become to everybody.
Lonely Home Night
There were faces at the windows and words written in blood; deep in the crypt a lonely ghoul crunched on something that might once have been alive; forked lightnings slashed the ebony night; the faceless were walking; all was right with the world
