Quote by Christopher Morley
“It has been suggested that the Three Hours for Lunch Club is an immoral institution; that it is founded upon an insufficient respect for the devotions of industry; that it runs counter to the form and pressure of the age; that it encourages a greedy and rambling humour in the young of both sexes; that it even punctures, in the capsule of efficiency and determination by which Great Matters are Put Over... But Food is not the chief object of its quest. It is true that Man, bitterly examined, is merely a vehicle for units of nourishing combustion; but on the occasions when the Club feels most truly Itself it rises above such considerations.”— Christopher Morley
