Famous quotes containing the word main:
“The aphorism wants to be at the same time both main line and off beat.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“The Temptress has now been shown here—terrible. The story, Garbo, everything is extremely bad. It is no exaggeration to say that I was dreadful. I was tired, I couldn’t sleep and everything went wrong. But the main reason is, I suppose, that I’m no actress.”
