Famous quotes containing the words actresses, played and/or mary:

    “... actresses require protection in their art from blind abuse, from savage criticism. Their work is their religion, if they are seeking the best in their art, and to abuse that faith is to rob them, to dishonor them.”
    —Nance O’Neil (1874–1965)

    “Listening to someone talk isn’t at all like listening to their words played over on a machine. What you hear when you have a face before you is never what you hear when you have before you a winding tape.”
    —Oriana Fallaci (b. 1930)

    “And the song she was singing ever since
    In my ear sounds on:—
    “Stay at home, pretty bees, fly not hence!
    Mistress Mary is dead and gone!””
    —John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)
