I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it any more—
the famous quote by the newscaster of Paddy Chayefsky's film now back as a Broadway playstarring Bryan Cranston.
The difference between a lady and a flower girl is not how she behaves, but how she's treated.— Eliza Doolittle back on the boards this season both in Shaw's Pygmalion and the beloved musical My Fair Lady.
Time's like a river,sometimes
Time is an ocean—
Lyric from
The Band's Visit
Even if you've always been that Barely-in-the-background kind of guy/You still matter— Dear Evan Hansen
