Works Based

Famous quotes containing the words works and/or based:

    “Now they express
    All that’s content to wear a worn-out coat,
    All actions done in patient hopelessness,
    All that ignores the silences of death,
    Thinking no further than the hand can hold,
    All that grows old,
    Yet works on uselessly with shortened breath.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “I have no acting technique.... I act instinctively. That’s why I can’t play any role that isn’t based on something in my life.”
    —Ethel Waters (1900–1977)
