Moon Troupe

Famous quotes containing the words moon and/or troupe:

    She is not terrified of
    begonias or telegrams but
    surely this nightgown girl,
    this awesome flyer, has not seen
    how the moon floats through her
    and in between.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    All I can tell you with certainty is that I, for one, have no self, and that I am unwilling or unable to perpetrate upon myself the joke of a self.... What I have instead is a variety of impersonations I can do, and not only of myself—a troupe of players that I have internalised, a permanent company of actors that I can call upon when a self is required.... I am a theater and nothing more than a theater.
    Philip Roth (b. 1933)
