Book Voice Actors

Famous quotes containing the words book, voice and/or actors:

    “I don’t know but a book in a man’s brain is better off than a book bound in calf—at any rate it is safer from criticism. And taking a book off the brain, is akin to the ticklish & dangerous business of taking an old painting off a panel—you have to scrape off the whole brain in order to get at it with due safety—& even then, the painting may not be worth the trouble.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “The voice of America has no undertones or overtones in it. It repeats its optimistic catchwords in a tireless monologue that has the slightly metallic sound of a gramophone.”
    —Vance Palmer (1885–1959)

    “The great actors are the luminous ones. They are the great conductors of the stage.”
    —Minnie Maddern Fiske (1865–1932)
