Famous quotes containing the words black and/or watch:

    The token woman carries a bouquet of hothouse celery
    and a stenographer’s pad; she will take
    the minutes, perk the coffee, smile
    like a plastic daisy and put out
    the black cat of her sensuous anger
    to howl on the fence all night.
    Marge Piercy (b. 1936)

    If you watch a game, it’s fun. If you play it, it’s recreation. If you work at it, it’s golf.
    Bob Hope (b. 1903)
