Started Play

Famous quotes containing the words started and/or play:

    Do you know how poetry started? I always think that it started when a cave boy came running back to the cave, through the tall grass, shouting as he ran, “Wolf, wolf,” and there was no wolf. His baboon-like parents, great sticklers for the truth, gave him a hiding, no doubt, but poetry had been born—the tall story had been born in the tall grass.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    And what’s he then that says I play the villain,
    When this advice is free I give, and honest,
    Probal to thinking, and indeed the course
    To win the Moor again?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
