I cannot afford to believe that freedom from intolerance is the right of only one particular group. And I cannot afford to choose between the fronts upon which I must battle these forces of discrimination, wherever they appear to destroy me. And when they appear to destroy me, it will not be long before they appear to destroy you.

Audre Lorde

The International Cricket Calender shouldn't be so packed with action that it drives spectators away. Also there should be enough space between cricket events to help players recharge their batteries - not just physically but mentally too.

Sachin Tendulkar

From a small age, we used to play a lot of school cricket: 30-35 games in a year in school cricket, then Under-16 games.

Prithvi Shaw

Whenever you pray, make sure you do it at school assemblies and football games, like the demonstrative creatures who pray before large television audiences. That is the real goal of the thing. But do not, I urge you, pray all alone in your home where no one can see. That does not get you ratings.

Garry Wills

It certainly is dangerous that there are only a few clubs left in Europe that can afford to pay millions. At the end of the day however, the spectators decide the rates of pay - by watching the games and consuming the goods and services advertised on sports TV programmes.

Cricket, however, has more in it than mere efficiency. There is something called the spirit of cricket, which cannot be defined.

Alfred Lord Tennyson

When we're not trying to kill each other with spells, we just sit in in Daniel's dressing room watching cricket games on television.

In my childhood I was obsessed with cameras but could not afford one. After much persuasion my father Harivansh Rai Bachchan bought me a box camera which I treasured for years. Initially I clicked trees and nature and as I grew up started noticing prettier things-motorbike, sleek cars and cool girls. But the hamartia of life is when you desire something you cannot afford it and when you are able to afford it you are too old to use it. Now I don't need all gadgets but it's satisfying to know that at least I can afford them.

Amitabh Bachchan

Twenty20 is cricket on speed. In an era of hectic lifestyles and falling attention spans, it gives spectators more drama and intensity in three hours that they would get from a whole-day match. And even though it is a heady cocktail of money, entertainment and media, at its core it is cricket.

Vikas Swarup

When I grew up, my father used to say that cricket is not a profession, cricket cannot bring you food. But I think he lived to see the day when I was actually paid.

Viv Richards

I have always been a movie buff and had no interest in any games and sports. I do not even watch cricket, which is one of the favourite games of most of my friends. However, I have become a wrestling fan after 'Dangal.'

Fatima Sana Shaikh

I just want to keep playing good cricket and winning games of cricket.

Steve Smith

When I was younger I used to get really nervous before games, so much so, you are almost throwing up before games.

Phil Jones

I play cricket. I'm a professional cricketer and I guess my job is to hopefully help Australia win games of cricket.

Ellyse Perry

We were talking about how old quarterbacks can't throw before 10 am... Practice starts too early for us. Wake me up in the middle of the night and I can throw. I can throw anytime.

Dan Marino

No country which has cricket as one of its national games has yet gone communist.
