XPath with multiple conditions

by

What XPath can I use to select any category with a name attribute specified and any child node author with the value specified.

I’ve tried different variations of the path below with no success:

//quotes/category[@name="Sport" and author="James Small"]

The XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<quotes>
  <category name="Sport">
   <author>James Small<quote date="09/02/1985">Quote One</quote><quote             date="11/02/1925">Quote nine</quote></author>
  </category>
   <category name="Music">
   <author>Stephen Swann
 <quote date="04/08/1972">Quote eleven</quote></author>
  </category>
  </quotes>
