Carol Burnett Show

Famous quotes containing the words carol, burnett and/or show:

“Prose—it might be speculated—is discourse; poetry ellipsis. Prose is spoken aloud; poetry overheard. The one is presumably articulate and social, a shared language, the voice of “communication”; the other is private, allusive, teasing, sly, idiosyncratic as the spider’s delicate web, a kind of witchcraft unfathomable to ordinary minds.”
—Joyce Carol Oates (b. 1938)

“If you want to know the feeling [of labor pain], just take your bottom lip and pull it over your head.”
—Carol Burnett (20th century)

“I have not from your eyes that gentleness
And show of love as I was wont to have.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
