Famous quotes containing the words comedy and/or actor:
“The actors today really need the whip hand. They’re so lazy. They haven’t got the sense of pride in their profession that the less socially elevated musical comedy and music hall people or acrobats have. The theater has never been any good since the actors became gentlemen.”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
“When an actor has money, he sends not letters, but telegrams.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
