Famous quotes containing the words normal and/or form:
“Insecurity, commonly regarded as a weakness in normal people, is the basic tool of the actor’s trade.”
—Miranda Richardson (b. 1958)
“An avant-garde man is like an enemy inside a city he is bent on destroying, against which he rebels; for like any system of government, an established form of expression is also a form of oppression. The avant-garde man is the opponent of an existing system.”
