Famous quotes containing the word plays:

    “In the game of “Whist for two,” usually called “Correspondence,” the lady plays what card she likes: the gentleman simply follows suit. If she leads with “Queen of Diamonds,” however, he may, if he likes, offer the “Ace of Hearts”: and, if she plays “Queen of Hearts,” and he happens to have no Heart left, he usually plays “Knave of Clubs.””
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    “Better to be despised and have a servant, than to be self-important and lack food.”
    —Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 12:9.

    RSV translation reads, “Better is a man of humble standing who works for himself than one who plays the great man but lacks bread.”
