Famous quotes containing the word theatre:

    Art is for [the Irish] inseparable from artifice: of that, the theatre is the home. Possibly, it was England made me a novelist.
    Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)

    For the theatre one needs long arms; it is better to have them too long than too short. An artiste with short arms can never, never make a fine gesture.
    Sarah Bernhardt (1844–1923)

    The theatre is the involuntary reflex of the ideas of the crowd.
    Sarah Bernhardt (1845–1923)
