Triumph

Famous quotes containing the word triumph:

    ... the one lesson in the ultimate triumph of any great actress has been to enforce the fact that a method all technique or a method all throes, is either one or the other inadequate, and often likely to work out in close proximity to the ludicrous.
    Mrs. Leslie Carter (1862–1937)

    When Learning’s Triumph o’er her barb’rous Foes
    First rear’d the Stage, immortal Shakespear rose;
    Each Change of many-colour’d Life he drew,
    Exhausted Worlds, and then imagin’d new:
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    These violent delights have violent ends
    And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
    Which as they kiss consume.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
