Famous quotes containing the words province and/or history:
“The dramatic art would appear to be rather a feminine art; it contains in itself all the artifices which belong to the province of woman: the desire to please, facility to express emotions and hide defects, and the faculty of assimilation which is the real essence of woman.”
—Sarah Bernhardt (1845–1923)
“Man watches his history on the screen with apathy and an occasional passing flicker of horror or indignation.”
