Famous quotes containing the words von and/or hagen:

“After all, poets shouldn’t be their own interpreters and shouldn’t carefully dissect their poems into everyday prose; that would mean the end of being poets. Poets send their creations into the world, it is up to the reader, the aesthetician, and the critic to determine what they wanted to say with their creations.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

“More than in any other performing arts the lack of respect for acting seems to spring from the fact that every layman considers himself a valid critic.”
