Famous quotes containing the words work and/or broadway:

    I’m your wife, damn it. And if you can’t work up a winter passion for me, the least I require is respect and allegiance.
    Paddy Chayefsky (1923–1981)

    ... here hundreds sit and play Bingo; here the bright lights of Broadway burn through a sea haze; here Somebodies tumble over other Somebodies and over Nobodies as well.
    —For the State of New Jersey, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
