Famous quotes containing the words woman and/or play:
“Age becomes reality when you hear someone refer to “that attractive young woman standing next to the woman in the green dress,” and you find that you’re the one in the green dress.”
—Lois Wyse (20th century)
“When I began to have a fire at evening, before I plastered my house, the chimney carried smoke particularly well, because of the numerous chinks between the boards.... Should not every apartment in which man dwells be lofty enough to create some obscurity overhead, where flickering shadows may play at evening about the rafters? These forms are more agreeable to the fancy and imagination than fresco paintings or other the most expensive furniture.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
