Twelve Clubs

Famous quotes containing the words twelve and/or clubs:

    “If we dreamed the same thing every night, it would affect us much as the objects we see every day. And if a common workman were sure to dream every night for twelve hours that he was a king, I believe he would be almost as happy as a king who should dream every night for twelve hours on end that he was a common workman.”
    —Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    “It is always a practical difficulty with clubs to regulate the laws of election so as to exclude peremptorily every social nuisance. Nobody wishes bad manners. We must have loyalty and character.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
