Game Quotes

“The Game of Go was one of the 4 Arts of China. It spread to all over Asia and was even mentioned in the Japanese novel, Tales of Genji. More than an ancient board game, the Game of Go is an analogy of life and emphasize balance, challenge, and fun. Not only does my name Kailin Gow has the word "Go" in it, but my philosophy on life of balance, challenge, and fun is similar to the Game. Thus, Kailin Gow's Go Girl TV Series, books, and overall brand reflects this philosophy as well. - Kailin Gow in interview about Kailin Gow's Go Girl Books and TV Series.”

“Disengage,” she whispered, pulling the red tab on her wristband. Immediately Avery’s weapons were rendered inactive and she became invisible to everyone in the augmented reality game, able to do nothing except walk back to the staging room until she reactivated.

“Les billes, je les aime tant et j'en ai tant gagné que je pourrais m'en emplir la bouche et tout le cordon intestinal, n'être plus qu'un bonhomme de billes : j'en ai plusieurs trousses que je décharge le soir dans une boîte à chaussures. Quand ce n'est pas la saison du scoubidou et de la cocotte-surprise, et je me rejette dans la bataille. Je suis devenu le boss des billes, c'est moi qui ai lancé la bille à cent, une trouvaile : mes rivaux ne pratiquent que la bille à dix. Chaque matin j'emporte une trousse vide, une trousse à demi pleine, et dans mes poches quelques calots qui comptent pour dix. J'ai mon emplacement réservé, juste à droite de la porte qui mène du préau à la cour, tout contre le mur il y a dans le sool gris comme un minuscule coquetier qui semble taillé tout exprès pour que j'y mette ma bille, j'ai mon créneau, je le paye en billes, et j'ai mes employés qui surveillent les joueurs. Je calcule la distance qui doit être appropriée à un tel lot : elle doit rendre la bille pratiquement invisible. Les billes pleuvent, je vérifie que ma petite bille ne bouge pas, je la fixe pour l'en empêcher. Pendant ce temps-là mes employés ramassent les billes et en remplissent une de mes deux trousses ouvertes par terre, je les surveille à peine, je les paye trop bien. Personne ne gagne. Quand mes deux trousses et toutes mes poches sont pleines à craquer, et que les poches de mes employés sont aussi pas mal remplies, je retire ma bille adorée. Je fais toujours avant de disparaître une petite distribution gratuite, pour apaiser ceux qui se sont sauvagement dépossédés ans cette mise insensée, je les fais courir en envoyant les grappes de billes à pleines mains le plus loin possible. J'aime qu'après cela, on me regarde avec reconnaissance.”

“When Louise returned to the Aviary the others were playing the game of what character in fiction Peter Mir reminded them of.

'I think he's Mr Pickwick,' said Louise.

'Oh no! Never!' said Sefton. 'I think he's more like Prospero.'

'I think he's the Green Knight,' said Aleph. 'Come on, Moy, what do you think?'

'I think he's the Minotaur.'

'The Minotaur isn't a literary character, he's a mythical character,' Sefton objected.

'Oh really — !'

'What does Clement think?' said Aleph.

'I think he's Mephistopheles,' said Clement.

'Surely not, he's so nice!' said Louise.”

“The staff at the Arcade played a game to pass the time, a game prompted unwittingly when customers asked a question that was exceedingly difficult to answer. The game was called Who Knows? and it did make a long day pass more quickly, but it also served the practical purpose of sharpening the skills required to work in the Arcade. A sense of humor was necessary as well, particularly about the demands placed on one’s memory.
There were no reference guides, save Books in Print (the place most likely not to list a book sought by a customer at the Arcade), so the only reliable source of reference was the staff and their collective memory. Memory was the yardstick of achievement at the Arcade, the measure of one’s value to Pike.”
― Sheridan Hay, The Secret of Lost Things

“La vita è come una partita di poker, è per questo che non ci accorgiamo che in gioco c'è sempre molto di più di quello che abbiamo, in gioco c'è la vita, ogni giorno. E questo è il momento di rischiare qualcosa, rischiare al buio, senza sapere ancora quali carte ci capiteranno tra le mani. Questo credo sia il momento di cominciare, di mescolare le carte e tagliare il mazzo, di distribuirle ai giocatori sparsi nel mondo e augurare a tutti buona fortuna.”
― Stefano Graiff, Poker

“Chi viene sempre portato sul palmo di una mano o cade sempre in piedi, non ha sostanza, non ha speranza. Devi farti male per rialzarti, devi soffrire per gioire. Succede soltanto a romantici e poeti, e a uomini masticati dalla vita e sognatori, "teppistuccoli" del cazzo e a me.”
― Stefano Graiff, Poker

“Noi ci guardiamo esterrefatti, sembriamo non capire cosa stia succedendo. Stiamo lì in silenzio a guardarci nel profondo attraverso gli occhi, sguardi negli sguardi per scrutarci l'un l'altro quasi ad indagare se c'è dell'anima in noi.
Siamo tutti scioccati e sconvolti dall'accaduto ma facciamo i duri, non ci spezziamo, non vogliamo scoprirci deboli, tutti con le mascelle serrate e la schiena ben ritta, petto in fuori e avanti che la vita procede, continua. Almeno fino alla prossima volta.”
― Stefano Graiff, Poker

“Se abbiamo qualcosa, se c'è anche un solo motivo per quale vale la pena di vivere, per il quale vale la pena di resistere e lottare, anche solo un semplice motivo, perché dobbiamo abbandonarci e credere che sia già tutto finito? Dobbiamo lottare fino all'ultimo respiro per le cose in cui crediamo, dobbiamo provare con tutte le forze a riscattarci.”
― Stefano Graiff, Poker

“Here is a beautiful game you can play: Go to a pretty street you have never been to; don’t look for anything and let the things find you! Never forget that those who look for nothing will always look more attractive!”
