Famous quotes containing the words town and/or centre:

    “Speak the speech ... trippingly on the tongue; but if you mouth it ... I had as lief the town crier had spoke my lines. Nor do not saw the air too much with your hand, thus, but use all gently; for in the very torrent, tempest, and as I may say the whirlwind of your passion, you must acquire and beget a temperance that may give it smoothness.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Being at the centre of a film is a burden one takes on with innocence—the first time. Thereafter, you take it on with trepidation.”
    —Daniel Day Lewis (b. 1957)
