Strana x - If you inculcate an idea in your play, so much the better for your play and for you — and for your audience.
Strana 58 - What's in a name? that which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet; So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd, Retain that dear perfection which he owes Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name, And for that name which is no part of thee Take all myself.
Strana 237 - I'm dying to be interviewed! Laughing. THE HERALD REPORTER, apropos of her walk. We see you have the Saratoga Stride in England. AURELIA. You mean my walk? With the Grecian Bend? Oh, but we call it the Brighton Dip. Yes, it's very fashionable with us ! THE TRIBUNE REPORTER. To what hotel do yOU go? AURELIA. The Brevoort House on the Fifth Avenue at Eighth Street; I'm told that is best and not so far uptown as the Fifth Avenue Hotel on the Broadway. THE TIMES REPORTER. And much nearer the New Academy...
Strana x - Take what strikes you most, in the hope it will interest others. Take what suits you most to do — what perhaps you can do best — and then do it better. Be truthful, and then nothing can be too big, nothing should be too small, so long as it is here, and...
Strana x - Life was never so varied, so complex. . . . Take what strikes you most, in the hope it will interest others; take what suits you most to do — what perhaps you can do best, and then do it better. Be truthful, and then nothing can be too big, nothing should be too small, so long as it is here and there.
Strana 362 - ... slow one, for you are too late ! MRS. JINKS. He's already proposed? AURELIA. And been accepted ! Not half an hour ago. [MRS. JINKS closes her eyes as if she were going to faint, and sinks into a chair.] Don't, please, take it so to heart ! Please — MRS. JINKS. Pardon me, I don't mean to be rude. This marriage cannot take place. You must give him up. AURELIA. It is quite impossible ! I am no Camille, Madam ! [Sitting determinedly at the opposite side of the table. MRS. JINKS. No what? AURELIA....
Strana 695 - ... for her gifts. All that a woman who marries for love feels at the altar I tell you a man can^t understand ! You treated this gift of mine, Dick, like a child does a Santa Claus plaything — for a while you were never happy away from it, then you grew accustomed to it, then you broke it, and now you have even lost the broken pieces ! STERLING. [Comes lo her, growing more and more determined.} I will find them, and put them together again.
Strana 191 - Damn the flag," theexcited people again surge against the Frietchie house, breaking the window glass with sticks and stones, while a boy climbs a pillar of the balcony and tries to tear down the flag. BARBARA, hardly knowing what she does, with the thought of her dead lover in the room behind her, bruised by the stones thrown by the angry mob below her, clings to the flag. It is seen that she is trying to speak, and the crowd, moved by curiosity, suddenly hush to hear her. BARBARA. Shoot ! You've...
Strana 385 - ome, sir; but she's as good as gold — never stirs . a 'air nor breathes a syllabub. [She takes the child to the sofa, and, lifting her up in her two hands, plumps her down into the corner, hard. Here the child remains without moving or speaking. MRS. MAGGITT kisses the child, and then turns to PROFESSOR BELLIARTI.] Please, sir, I wish as you'd taike me hout of the second row and put me in the front. I don't show at hall be'ind, and I'ma poor widow, and my legs is hall I've got. PROFESSOR BELLIARTI....
Strana 311 - CHARLIE sits on the piano stool and spins himself around. And they're seen constantly everywhere together. Last night it was at Niblo's Garden to see The Black Crook! And they're nearly every day at Maillard's or Delmonico's. GUSSIE. Well, that'll have to let up a bit after tonight, when she's begun singing. CHARLIE. You bet. There's not a seat to be had for love or money! They say there's not been such excitement in New York over a debut since Jenny Lind. GUSSIE. Has she been "at home" one single...
