Famous quotes containing the words acting and/or master:
“Between the acting of a dreadful thing
And the first motion, all the interim is
Like a phantasma or a hideous dream.
The genius and the mortal instruments
Are then in council, and the state of man,
Like to a little kingdom, suffers then
The nature of an insurrection.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“I cringe when critics say I’m a master of the popular novel. What’s an unpopular novel?”
—Irwin Shaw (b. 1913)
