Famous quotes containing the words adventure and/or squire:

    In the court of the movie Owner, none criticized, none doubted. And none dared speak of art. In the Owner’s mind art was a synonym for bankruptcy.... The movie Owners are the only troupe in the history of entertainment that has never been seduced by the adventure of the entertainment world.
    Ben Hecht (1893–1964)

    There now are no Squire Westerns as of old;
    And our Sophias are not so emphatic,
    But fair as then, or fairer to behold.
    We have no accomplish’d blackguards, like Tom Jones,
    But gentlemen in stays, as stiff as stones.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
