2. Nothing left to recycle is unspoiled.

2. Indian's goalie blocked one goal, but a goal got in near the end.

OK, am pretty sure I know the answer but still cannot resolve the first clue.

Nothing = save

left = sav

to = a

recycle = GE (as in General Electric washer? best I've got unless *to recycle* = age)

savage or unspoiled

Alternatively

goalie blocked one goal = save

but a g. (abreviation of goal) got in near the end

savage or Indian

Great! You got the alternate 2 exactly.

Unfortunately, I am going to end this one early so it won't be hanging on for 3 weeks.

Nothing left = remove the L / to recycle = SALVAGE / is unspoiled = SAVAGE.

Now use all of the answers to solve the BONUS! (It is probably anti-climactic at best.)

Hi HM. Try for No.2

2. Nothing left to recycle is unspoiled.

Nothing left = fresh out.

To recycle =refresh.

is unspoiled = fresh

Answer VIRGIN(FOREST)?

Great thoughts but I just posted the solution to this one above. I hate to do this but I am about to be away for a while and don't want it hanging on. You could still try for the BONUS though. :)

Bonus: One has 5:55 the second 6:52 third or fourth a 9:10.

Magic Numbers? (1 thru 10 cryptically listed in the above) Another snippet from William Congreve's play The Mourning Bride along with *Music has charms to soothe a savage breast, to soften rocks, or bend a knotted oak* and *Heaven has no rage, like love to hatred turned, Nor hell a fury, like a woman scorned.*

You got it! Two famous quotes from the same play.

One(1) has 5:55(5 to 6) the second(2) 6:52(8 to 7) third(3) or fourth(4) a 9:10(9,10).

Substitute the answers for each number and you get "Music has charms to soothe a savage breast, to soften rocks, or bend a knotted oak." the title is a snippet from the other famous quote.
