Sports is like a war without the killing.

Summary

This quote suggests that sports can be seen as a metaphorical battlefield where competition takes place, where rival teams or athletes battle against each other, striving for victory. It highlights the intensity and aggression involved in sports, often compared to the strategic and relentless nature of war. However, unlike actual warfare where lives are taken, sports offer a safer, controlled environment for individuals to express their competitive spirit and skills, providing an outlet for adrenaline and rivalry without the tragic consequences of real conflict.

As a bookish child in Calcutta, I used to thrill to the adventures of bad girls whose pursuit of happiness swept them outside the bounds of social decency. Tess of the d'Urbervilles, Emma Bovary and Anna Karenina lived large in my imagination. The naughty girls of Hollywood films flirted and knew how to drive.
