Stage Quotations
Old age, believe me, is a good and pleasant thing. It is true you are gently shouldered off the stage, but then you are given such a comfortable front stall as spectator. Confucius We are fast approaching the stage of the ultimate inversion: the stage where the government is free to do anything it pleases, while the citizens may act only by permission; which is the stage of the darkest periods of human history, the stage of rule by brute force. Ayn Rand Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more; it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. William Shakespeare All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players: they have their exits and their entrances; and one man in his time plays many parts, his acts being seven ages. William Shakespeare When we are born we cry that we are come to this great stage of fools. William Shakespeare I hold the world but as the world, Gratiano; A stage where every man must play a part, And mine is a sad one. William Shakespeare There is but one stage for the peasant and the actor. Henry David Thoreau Music makes me high on stage, and that's the truth. It's like being almost addicted to music. Jimi Hendrix At times in my life the only place I have been happy is when I am on stage. Bob Dylan Never bring the problem solving stage into the decision making stage. Otherwise, you surrender yourself to the problem rather than the solution. Robert H. Schuller |
