Famous quotes containing the words country and/or manager:

“As to politics, we were like the rest of the country people in England; that is to say, we neither knew nor thought any thing about the matter.”

“Nothing could his enemies do but it rebounded to his infinite advantage,—that is, to the advantage of his cause.... No theatrical manager could have arranged things so wisely to give effect to his behavior and words. And who, think you, was the manager?
