    “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.”
    —Uta Hagen (b. 1919)

    “When performing an autopsy, even the most inveterate spiritualist would have to question where the soul is.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    “I haven’t seen so much tippy-toeing around since the last time I went to the ballet. When members of the arts community were asked this week about one of their biggest benefactors, Philip Morris, and its requests that they lobby the New York City Council on the company’s behalf, the pas de deux of self- justification was so painstakingly choreographed that it constituted a performance all by itself.”
    —Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    “The music is in minors.”
    —Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
