Spectre Called

Famous quotes containing the words spectre and/or called:

    But there is nothing which delights and terrifies our English Theatre so much as a Ghost, especially when he appears in a bloody Shirt. A Spectre has very often saved a Play, though he has done nothing but stalked across the Stage, or rose through a Cleft of it, and sunk again without speaking one Word.
    Joseph Addison (1672–1719)

    The world, which the Greeks called Beauty, has been made such by being gradually divested of every ornament which was not fitted to endure.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
