Famous quotes containing the words clubs and and/or clubs:

    “As night returns bringing doubts
    That swarm around the sleeper’s head
    But are fended off with clubs and knives ...”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “Neighboring farmers and visitors at White Sulphur drove out occasionally to watch ‘those funny Scotchmen’ with amused superiority; when one member imported clubs from Scotland, they were held for three weeks by customs officials who could not believe that any game could be played with ‘such elongated blackjacks or implements of murder.’”
    —For the State of West Virginia, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
