Hobart Walking Club

Famous quotes containing the words walking and/or club:

    And now where e’re he strayes
    Among the Galilaean mountains,
    Or more unwelcome wayes,
    Hee’s follow’d by two faithfull fountaines,
    Two walking Baths, two weeping motions;
    Portable and compendious Oceans.
    Richard Crashaw (1613?–1649)

    I spoke at a woman’s club in Philadelphia yesterday and a young lady said to me afterwards, “Well, that sounds very nice, but don’t you think it is better to be the power behind the throne?” I answered that I had not had much experience with thrones, but a woman who has been on a throne, and who is now behind it, seems to prefer to be on the throne.
    Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)
