Famous quotes containing the words drama and/or romance:
“Show me one thing here on earth which has begun well and not ended badly. The proudest palpitations are engulfed in a sewer, where they cease throbbing, as though having reached their natural term: this downfall constitutes the heart’s drama and the negative meaning of history.”
—E.M. Cioran (b. 1911)
“While we look to the dramatist to give romance to realism, we ask of the actor to give realism to romance.”
