Famous quotes containing the words table and/or tennis:

    “The one happiness is to shut one’s door upon a little room, with a table before one, and to create; to create life in that isolation from life.”
    —Eleonora Duse (1859–1924)

    “The boneless quality of English conversation, which, so far as I have heard it, is all form and no content. Listening to Britons dining out is like watching people play first-class tennis with imaginary balls.”
    —Margaret Halsey (b. 1910)
