Player Play

Famous quotes containing the words player and/or play:

    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)

    when the moment comes
    we’ll talk turkey,
    we’ll shoot words straight from the hip,
    we’ll play it as it lays.
    Yes,
    when death comes with its hood
    we won’t be polite.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
