Famous quotes containing the word plays:
“Even in writing an annual report, the unconscious plays a role.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“Goodbye, boys; I’m under arrest. I may have to go to jail. I may not see you for a long time. Keep up the fight! Don’t surrender! Pay no attention to the injunction machine at Parkersburg. The Federal judge is a scab anyhow. While you starve he plays golf. While you serve humanity, he serves injunctions for the money powers.”
—Mother Jones (1830–1930)
“If you want to see your plays performed the way you wrote them, become President.”
—Václav Havel (b. 1936)
