My wife, however, will unerringly point out that the cheese or the leftover roast is hiding right in front of my eyes.

Man and women simply have learned to use their eyes in very different ways.”
—Edward T. Hall (b. 1914)

“More than in any other performing arts the lack of respect for acting seems to spring from the fact that every layman considers himself a valid critic.”
