"will and determination and passion..."

Quote of the Week: 
My favorite pastime is connected to real emotions, and not just those resulting from winning or losing, but will and determination and passion and compassion and schadenfreude and humor, the whole human buffet, in fact, of hungers, disappointments, frailties, and insecurities.
~ Stefan Fatsis, in Word Freak: Heartbreak, Triumph, Genius, and Obsession in the World of Competitive Scrabble (originally published in 2001 and now available in a 10th anniversary edition)
