Famous quotes containing the words blades and/or fitted:

    The virtue of making two blades of grass grow where only one grew before does not begin to be superhuman.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    An actor rides in a bus or railroad train; he sees a movement and applies it to a new role. A woman in agony of spirit might turn her head just so; a man in deep humiliation probably would wring his hands in such a way. From straws like these, drawn from completely different sources, the fabric of a character may be built. The whole garment in which the actor hides himself is made of small externals of observation fitted to his conception of a role.
    Eleanor Robson Belmont (1878–1979)
