Chase

Famous quotes containing the word chase:

    It’s not a field, I think, for people who need to have success every day: if you can’t live with a nightly sort of disaster, you should get out. I wouldn’t describe myself as lacking in confidence, but I would just say that ... the ghosts you chase you never catch.
    John Malkovich (b. 1953)

    The theater is a baffling business, and a shockingly wasteful one when you consider that people who have proven their worth, who have appeared in or been responsible for successful plays, who have given outstanding performances, can still, in the full tide of their energy, be forced, through lack of opportunity, to sit idle season after season, their enthusiasm, their morale, their very talent dwindling to slow gray death. Of finances we will not even speak; it is too sad a tale.
    —Ilka Chase (1905–1978)

    Groot: Now wait a minute, Quo. You really ain’t gonna take a man’s only set of teeth, are ya?
    Quo: Uh huh.
    Groot: Yeah, but I gotta use ‘em for eatin’.
    Quo: Come grub you get ‘em.
    Groot: Whad ya’ gonna do with ‘em?
    Quo: My name now Two-Jaw Quo.
    —Borden Chase [Frank Fowler] (1900–1971)
