Famous quotes containing the words play and/or action:
“There has been in our time a lack of reliance on language and a lack of experimentation which are frightening to anyone who sees them as symptoms. We know the phenomenon of stage-fright: it holds the player shivering, incapable of speech or action. Perhaps there is an audience-fright which the play can feel, which leaves him with these incapacities.”
—Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)
“The greatest pleasure I know, is to do a good action by stealth, and to have it found out by accident.”
—Charles Lamb (1775–1834)
