Famous quotes containing the words voice and/or actors:
“This, mayhap, was not logic, but it was something more potent, more real than logic—the soft insinuating voice of Sentiment.”
—Emmuska, Baroness Orczy (1865–1947)
“To save the theatre, the theatre must be destroyed, the actors and actresses must all die of the plague. They poison the air, they make art impossible. It is not drama that they play, but pieces for the theatre. We should return to the Greeks, play in the open air; the drama dies of stalls and boxes and evening dress, and people who come to digest their dinner.”
—Eleonora Duse (1859–1924)
