Game Turned

Famous quotes containing the words game and/or turned:

“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)

“because you lied to God outrightly—
told him that all things on earth were in order—
He turned his wrath upon you and said,
I will make you the most loathsome....”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
