Famous quotes containing the words skins and/or game:
“What an occupation! To sit and flay your fellow men and then offer their skins for sale and expect them to buy them.”
—J. August Strindberg (1849–1912)
“My first big mistake was made when, in a moment of weakness, I consented to learn the game; for a man who can frankly say “I do not play bridge” is allowed to go over in the corner and run the pianola by himself, while the poor neophyte, no matter how much he may protest that he isn’t “at all a good player, in fact I’m perfectly rotten,” is never believed, but dragged into a game where it is discovered, too late, that he spoke the truth.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
