Swing Player

Famous quotes containing the words swing and/or player:

“Slave of the wheel of labor, what to him
Are Plato and the swing of Pleiades?”
—Edwin Markham (1852–1940)

“Abused as we abuse it at present, dramatic art is in no sense cathartic; it is merely a form of emotional masturbation.... It is the rarest thing to find a player who has not had his character affected for the worse by the practice of his profession. Nobody can make a habit of self-exhibition, nobody can exploit his personality for the sake of exercising a kind of hypnotic power over others, and remain untouched by the process.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
