Quotes:

Old age is far more than white hair, wrinkles, the feeling that it is too late and the game finished, that the stage belongs to the rising generations. The true evil is not the weakening of the body, but the indifference of the soul.
View quotes by Andre Maurois

So this, thought Ferrier, was El Fenicio, an open courtyard behind a wineshop, a rectangle of hard-packed earth on which rows of small wooden tables and chairs had been set out to face a bare platform of a stage.
View quotes by Helen MacInnes

The Kop will be the symphony stage playing to the symphony hall.
View quotes by Tom Hicks

One difference between poetry and lyrics is that lyrics sort of fade into the background. They fade on the page and live on the stage when set to music.
View quotes by Stephen Sondheim

I find it easy to understand why the likes of Sarah-Louise end up going astray. Everybody hits that stage where the more your parents try to keep you close, the more you want to break free. But I was nowhere near as bad as Sarah-Louise is, although my mum might disagree.
View quotes by Tina O'Brien

This stage can be defined as a place where Shakespeare murdered Hamlet, and a great many Hamlets have since murdered Shakespeare
View quotes by Robert Morse

An actor is an actor is an actor. The less personality an actor has off stage the better. A blank canvas on which to draw the characters he plays.
View quotes by Arthur Lowe

I am sick and tired of being sick and tired. [Something that most people can relate to at some stage of their lives no doubt!]
View quotes by Fannie Hamer

I said when I became world number one a long time ago that if I was going to lose the number one spot at some stage I wanted it to be like this - by someone else playing fantastic matches, winning the big games, and playing superb tennis all year, Rafa has done that and he deserves it.
View quotes by Roger Federer

Advertising is a business of words, but advertising agencies are infested with men and women who cannot write. They cannot write advertisements, and they cannot write plans. They are helpless as deaf mutes on the stage of the Metropolitan Opera.
View quotes by David Ogilvy

I was very shaky on stage. I made a million pound bet with my agent five minutes before that I wouldn't win so I was very shocked. I was very shaken - if you lose a million pounds five minutes before, it is very shaky. (on the 2002 Baftas)
View quotes by Judi Dench

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
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.
Macbeth, Act 5 Scene 5
View quotes by William Shakespeare
