Famous quotes containing the words athletic and/or club:

    “The only athletic sport I ever mastered was backgammon.”
    —Douglas Jerrold (1803–1857)

    “Of course we women gossip on occasion. But our appetite for it is not as avid as a man’s. It is in the boys’ gyms, the college fraternity houses, the club locker rooms, the paneled offices of business that gossip reaches its luxuriant flower.”
    —Phyllis McGinley (1905–1978)
