Famous quotes containing the words work for, work and/or broadway:

    When you see what some girls marry, you realize how they must hate to work for a living.
    Helen Rowland (1875–1950)

    The better a work is, the more it attracts criticism; it is like the fleas who rush to jump on white linens.
    Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)

    Too many Broadway actors in motion pictures lost their grip on success—had a feeling that none of it had ever happened on that sun-drenched coast, that the coast itself did not exist, there was no California. It had dropped away like a hasty dream and nothing could ever have been like the things they thought they remembered.
    Mae West (1892–1980)
