Famous quotes containing the word theater:

    “...I have never known a “movement” in the theater that did not work direct and serious harm. Indeed, I have sometimes felt that the very people associated with various “uplifting” activities in the theater are people who are astoundingly lacking in idealism.”
    —Minnie Maddern Fiske (1865–1932)

    “The theater needs continual reminders that there is nothing more debasing than the work of those who do well what is not worth doing at all.”
    —Gore Vidal (b. 1925)

    “All I can tell you with certainty is that I, for one, have no self, and that I am unwilling or unable to perpetrate upon myself the joke of a self.... What I have instead is a variety of impersonations I can do, and not only of myself—a troupe of players that I have internalised, a permanent company of actors that I can call upon when a self is required.... I am a theater and nothing more than a theater.”
    —Philip Roth (b. 1933)
