American Bridge

Famous quotes containing the words american and/or bridge:

“The American doctrinaire is the converse of the American demagogue, and, in this way, is scarcely less injurious to the public. The first deals in poetry, the last in cant. He is as much a visionary on one side, as the extreme theoretical democrat is a visionary on the other.”
—James Fenimore Cooper (1789–1851)

“In bridge clubs and in councils of state, the passions are the same.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
