Famous quotes containing the words stage and/or productions:

    Remember that as a teenager you are at the last stage in your life when you will be happy to hear that the phone is for you.
    Fran Lebowitz (b. 1951)

    It is well known, that the best productions of the best human intellects, are generally regarded by those intellects as mere immature freshman exercises, wholly worthless in themselves, except as initiatives for entering the great University of God after death.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
