Famous quotes containing the word variety:

    The best interviews—like the best biographies—should sing the strangeness and variety of the human race.
    Lynn Barber (b. 1944)

    A third variety of drama ... begins as tragedy with scraps of fun in it ... and ends in comedy without mirth in it, the place of mirth being taken by a more or less bitter and critical irony.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    No entertainment is so cheap as reading, nor any pleasure so lasting. She will not want new fashions nor regret the loss of expensive diversions or variety of company if she can be amused with an author in her closet.
    Mary Wortley, Lady Montagu (1689–1762)
