Famous quotes containing the words city and/or theatre:
“Often even a whole city suffers for a bad man who sins and contrives presumptuous deeds.”
—Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)
“As in a theatre the eyes of men,
After a well-graced actor leaves the stage,
Are idly bent on him that enters next,
Thinking his prattle to be tedious,
Even so, or with much more contempt, men’s eyes
Did scowl on gentle Richard.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
