Motion Picture Actor

Famous quotes containing the words motion, picture and/or actor:

    “subways, rivered under streets
    and rivers . . . in the car
    the overtone of motion
    underground, the monotone
    of motion is the sound
    of other faces, also underground—”
    —Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    “But what now grips his fancy is her face,

    And how the cunning picture holds her still
    At just that smiling instant when her soul,
    Grown sweetly faint, and swept beyond control,
    Consents to his inexorable will.”
    —Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)

    “The actor who lets the dust accumulate on his Ibsen, his Shakspere [sic], and his Bible, but pores greedily over every little column of theatrical news, is a lost soul.”
    —Minnie Maddern Fiske (1865–1932)
