Famous quotes containing the words hall and/or vote:
“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)
“This clinches the bargain;
Sails out of the bay;
Gets the vote in the senate,
Spite of Webster and Clay.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
