Clap Quotations
Will the people in the cheaper seats clap your hands? And the rest of you, if you'll just rattle your jewelry.

William Butler Yeats I'd get more applause than some because I was just seventeen. If they didn't clap at the end of my act I would limp off stage and boy would they feel guilty. They would all burst into tremendous applause as they saw this poor cripple kid walking off. Jim Dale Don't clap too hard - it's a very old building. John Osborne Do you believe in fairies? Say quick that you believe. If you believe, clap your hands! James M. Barrie |
