Boston Globe James

Famous quotes containing the words boston, globe and/or james:

    Tonight I appear for the first time before a Boston audience—4,000 critics.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    Our revels now are ended. These our actors,
    As I foretold you, were all spirits, and
    Are melted into air, into thin air.
    And, like the baseless fabric of this vision,
    The cloud-capped towers, the gorgeous palaces,
    The solemn temples, the great globe itself—
    Yea, all which it inherit—shall dissolve
    And, like this insubstantial pageant faded,
    Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff
    As dreams are made on, and our little life
    Is rounded with a sleep.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I am blackly bored when they are at large & at work; but somehow I am still more blackly bored when they are shut up in Holloway & we are deprived of them.
    —Henry James (1843–1916)
