Sport Palace

Famous quotes containing the words sport and/or palace:

“For generations, a wide range of shooting in Northern Ireland has provided all sections of the population with a pastime which ... has occupied a great deal of leisure time. Unlike many other countries, the outstanding characteristic of the sport has been that it was not confined to any one class.”

Every blackning Church appalls,
And the hapless Soldiers sigh
Runs in blood down Palace walls”
