Famous quotes containing the words boat and/or club:
“The almost unexplored Everglades lay close by and with a half- hours start a man who knew the country was safe from pursuit. As one man cheerfully confided ..., A boat dont leave no trail, stranger.”
—For the State of Florida, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“The barriers of conventionality have been raised so high, and so strangely cemented by long existence, that the only hope of overthrowing them exists in the union of numbers linked together by common opinion and effort ... the united watchword of thousands would strike at the foundation of the false system and annihilate it.”
—Mme. Ellen Louise Demorest 18241898, U.S. womens magazine editor and womans club movement pioneer. Demorests Illustrated Monthly and Mirror of Fashions, p. 203 (January 1870)
