Blue Streak Stage

Famous quotes containing the words blue, streak and/or stage:

    Sometimes we see a cloud that’s dragonish,
    A vapor sometimes like a bear or lion,
    A towered citadel, a pendant rock,
    A forked mountain, or blue promontory
    With trees upon ‘t that nod unto the world
    And mock our eyes with air. Thou hast seen these signs;
    They are black vesper’s pageants.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    No gray hairs streak my soul,
    no grandfatherly fondness there!
    I shake the world with the might of my voice,
    and walk—handsome,
    twentytwoyearold.
    Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893–1930)

    Their rebukes have never made me angry, because I have always wondered why they did not rebuke me more. They should have. Their friendly praise has been one of the sweetest, most warming things in my life in the theater. I do go on the stage unafraid of them and with love in my heart for them.
    Minnie Maddern Fiske (1865–1932)
