“Your function as a critic is to show that it is really you yourself who should have written the book, if you had had the time, and since you hadn't you are glad that someone else had, although obviously it might have been done better.”
Stephen Potter

“And now they smile at Paradine,
Who but would smile at Paradine?
(That man of games, called Paradine)
For the Gamesman came his way. Paradine”
Stephen Potter, The Theory and Practice of Gamesmanship: or The Art of Winning Games Without Actually Cheating

“There is nothing more putting off to young university players than a slight suggestion that their etiquette or sportsmanship is in question.”
