Famous quotes containing the words famous, people and/or painted:

    “A famous theatrical actress
    Played best in the role of malefactress.
    Yet her home-life was pure
    Except, to be sure,
    A scandal or two just for practice.”
    —Anonymous.

    “It was not exactly a hairdresser’s; that is to say, people of a coarse and vulgar turn of mind might have called it a barber’s; for they not only cut and curled ladies elegantly, and children carefully, but shaved gentlemen easily.”
    —Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

    “Come gather round me players all:
    Come praise Nineteen-Sixteen,
    Those from the pit and gallery
    Or from the painted scene
    That fought in the Post Office
    Or round the City Hall....”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
