Famous quotes containing the words oldest and/or player:
“Harvey, Jr.: I was afraid something like this would happen. Being around all those young students was bound to give Father ideas.
Laura: Young ideas, nuts. They’re the oldest ideas in the world.”
—Tom Waldman (d. 1985)
“Abused as we abuse it at present, dramatic art is in no sense cathartic; it is merely a form of emotional masturbation.... It is the rarest thing to find a player who has not had his character affected for the worse by the practice of his profession. Nobody can make a habit of self-exhibition, nobody can exploit his personality for the sake of exercising a kind of hypnotic power over others, and remain untouched by the process.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
