Moon Troupe

Famous quotes containing the words moon and/or troupe:

    in the pleasure of that communion

    I lose track,
    the moon I watch goes down, the

    tide swings you away before
    I know I’m
    alone again long since,
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    All I can tell you with certainty is that I, for one, have no self, and that I am unwilling or unable to perpetrate upon myself the joke of a self.... What I have instead is a variety of impersonations I can do, and not only of myself—a troupe of players that I have internalised, a permanent company of actors that I can call upon when a self is required.... I am a theater and nothing more than a theater.
    Philip Roth (b. 1933)
