Queen Street Bus

Famous quotes containing the words queen and/or bus:

    O Queen of air and darkness,
    I think ‘tis truth you say,
    And I shall die to-morrow;
    But you will die to-day.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)

    An actor rides in a bus or railroad train; he sees a movement and applies it to a new role. A woman in agony of spirit might turn her head just so; a man in deep humiliation probably would wring his hands in such a way. From straws like these, drawn from completely different sources, the fabric of a character may be built. The whole garment in which the actor hides himself is made of small externals of observation fitted to his conception of a role.
    Eleanor Robson Belmont (1878–1979)
