Clay Court Season

Famous quotes containing the words clay, court and/or season:

    “I am sure my bones would not rest in an English grave, or my clay mix with the earth of that country.

I would not even feed her worms if I could help it.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    “In the court of the movie Owner, none criticized, none doubted. And none dared speak of art. In the Owner’s mind art was a synonym for bankruptcy.... The movie Owners are the only troupe in the history of entertainment that has never been seduced by the adventure of the entertainment world.”
    —Ben Hecht (1893–1964)

    “Methoughts a legion of foul fiends
    Environed me, and howled in mine ears
    Such hideous cries that with the very noise
    I trembling waked, and for a season after
    Could not believe but that I was in hell,
    Such terrible impression made my dream.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
