Famous quotes containing the words hall and/or fame:

    The actors today really need the whip hand. They’re so lazy. They haven’t got the sense of pride in their profession that the less socially elevated musical comedy and music hall people or acrobats have. The theater has never been any good since the actors became gentlemen.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    Alas I find the Serpent old
    That, twining in his speckled breast,
    About the flow’rs disguis’d does fold,
    With wreaths of Fame and Interest.
    Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
