Famous quotes containing the words pitch and/or bowl:
“I dream that I have brought
To such a pitch my thought
That coming time can say,
He shadowed in a glass
What thing her body was.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“It seemed a long way from 143rd Street. Shaking hands with the Queen of England was a long way from being forced to sit in the colored section of the bus going into downtown Wilmington, North Carolina. Dancing with the Duke of Devonshire was a long way from not being allowed to bowl in Jefferson City, Missouri, because the white customers complained about it.”
—Althea Gibson (b. 1927)
