Famous quotes containing the words single and/or drama:
“I would strenuously urge a single term of six years.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“If melodrama is the quintessence of drama, farce is the quintessence of theatre. Melodrama is written. A moving image of the world is provided by a writer. Farce is acted. The writer’s contribution seems not only absorbed but translated.... One cannot imagine melodrama being improvised. The improvised drama was pre-eminently farce.”
—Eric Bentley (b. 1916)
