Anne Rice I don't buy into any of that hogwash. They put that out to sell tickets. It's just a classic horror movie, with the Greek drama formula of good versus evil, and lots of fear. Margot Kidder I guess darkness serves a purpose: to show us that there is redemption through chaos. I believe in that. I think that's the basis of Greek mythology. Brendan Fraser I have friends who read my books in Greek. Brian Lumley I like to cook, but mostly Greek. When I am confused or tired, I think about what I can cook. It takes you away from everything, as you are thinking only of your dish. Nana Mouskouri I thought that the chief thing to be done in order to equal boys was to be learned and courageous. So I decided to study Greek and learn to manage a horse. Elizabeth Cady Stanton I was the executive editor on a little magazine called Greek Accent, whose only claim to fame is that its art director went on to be the art director of Discover for many years. Jane Haddam I've played American, Italian, Greek, French. I've been really lucky that way.

Martin Scorsese It has always seemed to me a pity that the young people of our generation should grow up with such scant knowledge of Greek and Latin literature, its wealth and variety, its freshness and its imperishable quality. James Loeb It was a Greek tragedy. Nixon was fulfilling his own nature. Once it started it could not end otherwise. Henry A. Kissinger Knowing some Greek helped defuse forbidding words - not that I counted much on using them. You'll find only trace elements of this language in the poem. James Merrill Movies are immortal art - the first new art since Greek drama. Eric Johnston My boyhood saw Greek islands floating over Harvard Square. Horace Gregory My mom used to say that Greek Easter was later because then you get stuff cheaper. Amy Sedaris My mother, Dorothy Watson, had met my father in a Greek class at Northwestern University. James Cronin No matter how thoroughly a person may have learned the Greek alphabet, he will never be in a condition to repeat it backwards without further training. Hermann Ebbinghaus People try to make a Greek tragedy of my life, and they can't do it. I'm too happy. Curt Flood |
