Greek Comedy

Famous quotes containing the words greek and/or comedy:

    So you may say,
    Greek flower; Greek ecstasy
    reclaims for ever
    one who died
    following
    intricate songs’ lost measure.”
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    Unless comedy touches me as well as amuses me, it leaves me with a sense of having wasted my evening. I go to the theatre to be moved to laughter, not to be tickled or bustled into it.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
