Famous quotes containing the words motor and/or show:
“We disparage reason.
But all the time it’s what we’re most concerned with.
There’s will as motor and there’s will as brakes.
Reason is, I suppose, the steering gear.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“That’s what show business is—sincere insincerity.”
—Benny Hill (1925–1992)
