Gypsy Quotations
One of my favorite people is Gypsy Rose Lee. She bears out the Biblical promise that he who has, gets. And I hope she gets a lot more. Hedy Lamarr I've always seen myself as one of those 'show people.' My earliest memories are wanting and needing to entertain people, like a gypsy traveler who goes from place to place, city to city, performing for audiences and reaching people. Brittany Murphy As the mother teaches her children how to express themselves in their language, so one Gypsy musician teaches the other. They have never shown any need for notation. Franz Liszt It is impossible to imagine a more complete fusion with nature than that of the Gypsy. Franz Liszt My whole life was foretold to me. An old Romany gypsy read my fortune. Maureen O'Hara |
