Letter "P" » poker game
«Baseball is like a poker game. Nobody wants to quit when he's losing; nobody wants you to quit when you're ahead.»
«God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of His own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of the players, (ie everybody), to being involved in an obscure and complex version of poker in a pitch-dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a Dealer who won't tell you the rules, and who smiles all the time.»
