Famous quotes containing the words drama, theater and/or arts:

    Show me one thing here on earth which has begun well and not ended badly. The proudest palpitations are engulfed in a sewer, where they cease throbbing, as though having reached their natural term: this downfall constitutes the heart’s drama and the negative meaning of history.
    E.M. Cioran (b. 1911)

    This ... is an age of specialization, and in such an age the repertory theater is an anachronism, a ludicrous anachronism.
    Minnie Maddern Fiske (1865–1932)

    In a very ugly and sensible age, the arts borrow, not from life, but from each other.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
