Famous quotes containing the words returning and/or performers:

    “The return to solid values is always hard.... Distress, panic, and hard times have marked our pathway in returning to solid values.”
    —James A. Garfield (1831–1881)

    “The reason I’m in this business, I assume all performers are—it’s “Look at me, Ma!” It’s acceptance, you know—”Look at me, Ma, look at me, Ma, look at me, Ma.” And if your mother watches, you’ll show off till you’re exhausted; but if your mother goes, Ptshew!”
    —Lenny Bruce (1925–1966)
