Stage Quotes
-
Painting is almost like a religious experience, which should go on and on. Age just gives you the freedom to do some things you've never done before. Great work can come at any stage of your life.
Will Barnet
-
I used to love stage above all, but that was when I was a single man. As I get older, the time commitment gets harder for theatre.
Seamus Dever
-
On stage, generally speaking, the story is stopped or held back by songs, because that's the convention. Audiences enjoy the song and the singer, that's the point.
Stephen Sondheim
-
I've learned to keep my work on the stage or on the screen.
John Lloyd Young
-
From my point of view, there is a lot of joy in stage work.
George Peppard
-
The stage on which you perform in film and TV is much smaller. Moving your eyes across the frame is equivalent to crossing from stage right to stage left in a big Broadway house. Coming from a theatrical background and temperament, this is something I am still learning. However, I think ultimately your responsibilities to the character and the overall story are the same in both mediums, so my approach felt very similar.
Bryce Pinkham

If you don't own the stage, you shouldn't be in rock n' roll.

We don't go on about trying to save the Brazilian rain forest. We're not ashamed of the fact that we can write lyrics like Let's Get Rocked which 99 percent of the world thinks is completely ridiculous, stupid and immature. If George Bush stood up on stage and pretended to be Eddie Van Halen that would be ridiculous, so when I see the Billy Braggs of this world using music as a soapbox it pisses me off. Music should always entertain, first and foremost. Nobody would take us seriously if we did songs like shut the ozone layer, save the rain forests, stop killing people in Bosnia. Everybody would laugh at us. I'd rather listen to Noddy Holder (Slade) sing about nothing at all than do a duet with Sinead O'Connor. We're not that desperate for publicity. We'll always be Leppard.
Joe Elliott
Def Leppard

In my 20s, I was a monk. I was obsessed with theatre, not being famous, not with television. I was 20 years on the stage before I set foot in front of a camera.
Saul Rubinek
-
I grew up on that stage. I learned almost everything I know there.
Haley Pullos
-
When a theater goes dark for the night, a stagehand leaves a lighted lamp on stage. No one knows why any more, but some old timers say it is to keep the ghosts away. Others say it lights the stage for the ghosts to play. Whichever theory one adheres to, most people agree: a great theater is haunted.
Emily Mann
-
Picnics are very dear to those who are in the first stage of the tender passion.
Arthur Conan Doyle
