Famous quotes containing the words games, men and/or play:

“Some men there are love not a gaping pig,
Some that are mad if they behold a cat,
And others when the bag-pipe sings i’th nose
Cannot contain their urine.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“By whatever means it is accomplished, the prime business of a play is to arouse the passions of its audience so that by the route of passion may be opened up new relationships between a man and men, and between men and Man. Drama is akin to the other inventions of man in that it ought to help us to know more, and not merely to spend our feelings.”
—Arthur Miller (b. 1915)
