Famous quotes containing the words town, hall and/or theater:

    “He builds a big town with his mouth, but not even a fly’s nest with his hands.”

    “Go where he will, the wise man is at home,
    His hearth the earth,—his hall the azure dome;
    Where his clear spirit leads him, there’s his road,
    By God’s own light illumined and foreshadowed.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “I want to give the audience a hint of a scene. No more than that. Give them too much and they won’t contribute anything themselves. Give them just a suggestion and you get them working with you. That’s what gives the theater meaning: when it becomes a social act.”
    —Orson Welles (1915–1984)
