I'd like to be remembered as a guy who tried - who tried to be part of his times, tried to help people communicate with one another, tried to find some decency in his own life, tried to extend himself as a human being. Someone who isn't complacent, who doesn't cop out. – Paul Newman Famous Quote	added 7 years ago
Someone called actors sculptors in snow. Very apt. In the end, it's all nothing. – Vincent Price Famous Quote	added 7 years ago
Suddenly in the '50s, a whole new group of actors came out: Marlon Brando, James Dean and Paul Newman, who were very moody and realistic. So actors like myself and Basil Rathbone and so on didn't really fit into those realistic dramas and we began to do costume pictures. This was really the only place we could go on working if we wanted to survive as actors. Most of the things of my later career have been costume pictures. They require a certain knowledge of the language, they require enunciation and a poetic approach to the language. Really, the one thing we have over the apes is our language, isn't it? That's about all. – Vincent Price Famous Quote	added 7 years ago

I don't play monsters. I play men besieged by fate and out for revenge. – Vincent Price Famous Quote	added 7 years ago

Leadership is the other side of the coin of loneliness, and he who is a leader must always act alone. And acting alone, accept everything alone. – Ferdinand Marcos Famous Quote	added 7 years ago
A cartoonist creates his whole universe without any input. – Mark Hamill Famous Quote	added 7 years ago
I debated in high school: If you told things that weren't true or just made things out of whole cloth, you were penalized. It's too bad they don't apply the same standards to presidential candidates as they do to high school students. – Mark Hamill Famous Quote	added 7 years ago
I will say that comic books are not the easiest things to translate to film, number one. Even the most well meaning of filmmakers find what's acceptable on the printed page is very difficult to bring to film. – Mark Hamill Famous Quote	added 7 years ago
Nothing so concentrates the mind as the sight of the gallows. – Samuel Johnson Famous Quote	added 7 years ago
Painting is silent poetry. – Plutarch Famous Quote	added 7 years ago

Let us put our trust in God and console ourselves with the thought that all is well, if it is in accordance with the will of the Almighty, as He knows best what is profitable and beneficial to our temporal happiness and our eternal salvation. – Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Famous Quote	added 7 years ago
I have never written the music that was in my heart to write; perhaps I never shall with this brain and these fingers, but I know that hereafter it will be written; when instead of these few inlets of the senses through which we now secure impressions from without, there shall be a flood of impressions from all sides; and instead of these few tones of our little octave, there shall be an infinite scale of harmonies - for I feel it - I am sure of it. This world of music, whose borders even now I have scarcely entered, is a reality, is immortal. – Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Famous Quote	added 7 years ago
Technique is the basis of every pursuit. If youre a sportsman or youre a singer or a swimmer, well that comes under sport but you have to develop a basic technique to know what youre doing at any given time. – Joan Sutherland Famous Quote	added 7 years ago
Watermelon - it's a good fruit. You eat, you drink, you wash your face. – Enrico Caruso Famous Quote	added 7 years ago
I suffer so much in this life. That is what they [the audience] are feeling when I sing, that is why they cry. People who felt nothing in this life cannot sing. – Enrico Caruso Famous Quote	added 7 years ago
I know that I shall sing only a certain number of times. So I think to myself, Tonight I will hold back my voice. I will save it a little and that will mean I may be able to sing a few more times. But when I go before the audience, when I hear the music and begin to sing, I cannot hold back. I give the best there is in me - I give all. – Enrico Caruso Famous Quote	added 7 years ago
When you speak of tenors, you have to divide them into two groups. Caruso in the first group. All the others are in the second. – Rosa Ponselle Famous Quote	added 7 years ago
I have encountered three miracles - Enrico Caruso, Tita Ruffo and Rosa Ponselle. – Tullio Serafin Famous Quote	added 7 years ago
In the surroundings of an opera performance, once I am deep in it, I am living it. Between the acts and in my dressing room to change costumes, I do not realize I am Rosa Ponselle. I seem instead to be Aida, Gioconda, Norma--the woman I am singing. And when the last curtain falls, I am a rag--but contented. – Rosa Ponselle Famous Quote	added 7 years ago
