Famous quotes containing the words comic and/or standing:
“The deeply thoughtful and human consciousness of a Macbeth is not found in comedy. Comic action tends to be as Bergson described it, physical or purblind, instead of highly conscious. Similarly, the great comic actor specializes in the presentation of mental obtuseness.”
—William G. McCollom (b. 1911)
“She tried to sit on my lap while I was standing up.”
—William Faulkner (1897–1962)
