West Long Branch

Famous quotes containing the words west, long and/or branch:

    Personality is the glitter that sends your little gleam across the footlights and the orchestra pit into that big black space where the audience is.
    —Mae West (1892–1980)

    More are men’s ends marked than their lives before.
    The setting sun, and music at the close,
    As the last taste of sweets, is sweetest last,
    Writ in remembrance more than things long past.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    When I am finishing a picture I hold some God-made object up to it—a rock, a flower, the branch of a tree or my hand—as a kind of final test. If the painting stands up beside a thing man cannot make, the painting is authentic. If there’s a clash between the two, it is bad art.
    Marc Chagall (1889–1985)
