Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or gala:

    “Behold that great Plotinus swim
    Buffeted by such seas;
    Bland Rhadamanthus beckons him,
    But the Golden Race looks dim,
    Salt blood blocks his eyes.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “The director is simply the audience. So the terrible burden of the director is to take the place of that yawning vacuum, to be the audience and to select from what happens during the day which movement shall be a disaster and which a gala night. His job is to preside over accidents.”
    —Orson Welles (1915–1984)
