Real Spectre

Famous quotes containing the words real and/or spectre:

    Where my imaginary line
    Bends square in woods, an iron spine
    And pile of real rocks have been founded.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    But there is nothing which delights and terrifies our English Theatre so much as a Ghost, especially when he appears in a bloody Shirt. A Spectre has very often saved a Play, though he has done nothing but stalked across the Stage, or rose through a Cleft of it, and sunk again without speaking one Word.
    Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
