Famous quotes containing the words song and/or performer:

“Marlowe went muttering to death
When he had done with song and lust.”

“Celebrity is a mask that eats into the face. As soon as one is aware of being “somebody,” to be watched and listened to with extra interest, input ceases, and the performer goes blind and deaf in his overanimation. One can either see or be seen.”
