Famous quotes containing the words play and/or action:
“Let us not play at kittly-benders. There is a solid bottom everywhere.”

“We have seen the city; it is the gibbous
Mirrored eye of an insect. All things happen
On its balcony and are resumed within,
But the action is the cold, syrupy flow
Of a pageant.”
