Famous quotes containing the word theatre:

    “The theatre is the involuntary reflex of the ideas of the crowd.”
    —Sarah Bernhardt (1845–1923)

    “This visible world is wonderfully to be delighted in, and highly to be esteemed, because it is the theatre of God’s righteous Kingdom.”
    —Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)

    “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)
