Famous quotes containing the words player and/or finds:
“Abused as we abuse it at present, dramatic art is in no sense cathartic; it is merely a form of emotional masturbation.... It is the rarest thing to find a player who has not had his character affected for the worse by the practice of his profession. Nobody can make a habit of self-exhibition, nobody can exploit his personality for the sake of exercising a kind of hypnotic power over others, and remain untouched by the process.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“As one who strives a hill to climb,
Who never climbed before:
Who finds it in a little time,
Grow every moment less sublime,
And votes the thing a bore:”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
