Famous quotes containing the words intended and/or audience:
“Although what I am now to say is to be, in form, a reprimand, it is not intended to add a pang to what you have already suffered.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
“The Taylor and the Painter often contribute to the Success of a Tragedy more than the Poet. Scenes affect ordinary Minds as much as Speeches; and our Actors are very sensible, that a well-dressed Play has sometimes brought them as full Audiences, as a well-written one.... But however the Show and Outside of the Tragedy may work upon the Vulgar, the more understanding Part of the Audience immediately see through it, and despise it.”
—Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
