Famous quotes containing the word province:

    “The dramatic art would appear to be rather a feminine art; it contains in itself all the artifices which belong to the province of woman: the desire to please, facility to express emotions and hide defects, and the faculty of assimilation which is the real essence of woman.”
    —Sarah Bernhardt (1845–1923)
