Famous quotes containing the words wits and/or theatre:
“Great wits are sure to madness near allied,
And thin partitions do their bounds divide.”
—John Dryden (1631–1700)
“People fall out of windows, trees tumble down,
Summer is changed to winter, the young grow old
The air is full of children, statues, roofs
And snow. The theatre is spinning round,
Colliding with deaf-mute churches and optical trains.
The most massive sopranos are singing songs of scales.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
