Famous quotes containing the words cast and/or characters:

    All voting is a sort of gaming, like checkers or backgammon, with a slight moral tinge to it, a playing with right and wrong, with moral questions; and betting naturally accompanies it. The character of the voters is not staked. I cast my vote, perchance, as I think right; but I am not vitally concerned that right should prevail. I am willing to leave it to the majority.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    No author has created with less emphasis such pathetic characters as Chekhov has....
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
