Famous quotes containing the words completely, improvised and/or manner:

    “When we dream about those who are long since forgotten or dead, it is a sign that we have undergone a radical transformation and that the ground on which we live has been completely dug up: then the dead rise up, and our antiquity becomes modernity.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “If melodrama is the quintessence of drama, farce is the quintessence of theatre. Melodrama is written. A moving image of the world is provided by a writer. Farce is acted. The writer’s contribution seems not only absorbed but translated.... One cannot imagine melodrama being improvised. The improvised drama was pre-eminently farce.”
    —Eric Bentley (b. 1916)

    “I wish you all manner of prosperity, with a little more taste.”
    —Alain-René Le Sage (1668–1747)
