Famous quotes containing the word plays:

    “The verbal poetical texture of Shakespeare is the greatest the world has known, and is immensely superior to the structure of his plays as plays. With Shakespeare it is the metaphor that is the thing, not the play.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    “For truly it is to be noted, that children’s plays are not sports, and should be deemed as their most serious actions.”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    “He who plays advisor is no longer ambassador.”
    —Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)
