Famous quotes containing the words holiday, inn and/or club:
“With a broad shoehorn
I am unstuffing a big bird in this dream

knowing it will burst with such
onion, oyster, savory bread crust.”
—Maxine Kumin (b. 1925)
“The repose of sleep refreshes only the body. It rarely sets the soul at rest. The repose of the night does not belong to us. It is not the possession of our being. Sleep opens within us an inn for phantoms. In the morning we must sweep out the shadows.”
—Gaston Bachelard (1884–1962)
“He loved to sit silent in a corner of his club and listen to the loud chattering of politicians, and to think how they all were in his power—how he could smite the loudest of them, were it worth his while to raise his pen for such a purpose.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
