Live Theater

Famous quotes containing the words live and/or theater:

    Still we live meanly, like ants; though the fable tells us that we were long ago changed into men; like pygmies we fight with cranes; it is error upon error, and clout upon clout, and our best virtue has for its occasion a superfluous and evitable wretchedness. Our life is frittered away by detail.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The primary function of a theater is not to please itself, or even to please its audience. It is to serve talent.
    Robert Brustein (b. 1927)
