Reaction Time

Famous quotes containing the words reaction and/or time:

“An actor must communicate his author’s given message—comedy, tragedy, serio- comedy; then comes his unique moment, as he is confronted by the looked-for, yet at times unexpected, reaction of the audience. This split second is his; he is in command of his medium; the effect vanishes into thin air; but that moment has a power all its own and, like power in any form, is stimulating and alluring.”
—Eleanor Robson Belmont (1878–1979)

“Although it is generally known, I think it’s about time to announce that I was born at a very early age.”
—Groucho Marx (1895–1977)
