Reality Show Contestant

Famous quotes containing the words reality, show and/or contestant:

    Two myths must be shattered: that of the evil stepparent . . . and the myth of instant love, which places unrealistic demands on all members of the blended family. . . . Between the two opposing myths lies reality. The recognition of reality is, I believe, the most important step toward the building of a successful second family.
    Claire Berman (20th century)

    Lora May: How do I look?
    Sadie: If I was you I’d show more of what I got. Maybe wear something with beads.
    Lora May: What I got don’t need beads.
    Joseph L. Mankiewicz (1909–1993)

    Ashtrays to cry into,
    the suffering brother of the wood walls,
    the forty-eight keys of the typewriter
    each an eyeball that is never shut,
    the books, each a contestant in a beauty contest,
    the black chair, a dog coffin made of Naugahyde....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
