Moving Number

Famous quotes containing the words moving and/or number:

    If melodrama is the quintessence of drama, farce is the quintessence of theatre. Melodrama is written. A moving image of the world is provided by a writer. Farce is acted. The writer’s contribution seems not only absorbed but translated.... One cannot imagine melodrama being improvised. The improvised drama was pre-eminently farce.
    Eric Bentley (b. 1916)

    He is the greatest artist who has embodied, in the sum of his works, the greatest number of the greatest ideas.
    John Ruskin (1819–1900)
