Quotations regarding 'Play'

Choose a letter: 
It is a peculiar part of the good photographer's adventure to know where luck is most likely to lie in the stream, to hook it, and to bring it in without unfair play and without too much subduing it.
James Agee, American Novelist (1909-1955)
I wouldn't have made it past the first round of American Idol auditions. It was months before our first song was recorded. The guys were like, 'Just seeng!' And I was like, 'I don't know how to seeng! Can't I just play the triangle?'
Malin Akerman, Swedish Actress (1978-  )
I'm not suggesting that the play is without fault; all of my plays are imperfect, I'm rather happy to say-it leaves me something to do.
Edward Albee, American Dramatist (1928-  )
A play is fiction - and fiction is fact distilled into truth.
Edward Albee, American Dramatist (1928-  )
One must let the play happen to one; one must let the mind loose to respond as it will, to receive impressions, to sense rather than know, to gather rather than immediately understand.
Edward Albee, American Dramatist (1928-  )
Concentrate, play your game, and don't be afraid to win.
Amy Alcott, American Athlete (1956-  )
Have regular hours for work and play; make each day both useful and pleasant, and prove that you understand the worth of time by employing it well. Then youth will be delightful, old age will bring few regrets, and life will become a beautiful success.
Louisa May Alcott, American Novelist (1832-1888)
The show is like an Edwardian play - emotional life gets stepped on for the sake of accepted manners, and that's terrific for actors to play in.
Jason Alexander, American Actor (1959-  )
Never play cards with a man called Doc. Never eat at a place called Mom's. Never sleep with a woman whose troubles are worse than your own.
Nelson Algren, American Novelist (1909-1981)
I'm doing a play, a musical. The musical follows the Mamma Mia concept. It's my first LA theater project.
Tatyana Ali, American Actress (1979-  )
Life is a corrupting process from the time a child learns to play his mother off against his father in the politics of when to go to bed; he who fears corruption fears life.
Saul Alinsky, American Activist (1909-1972)
I play a musical instrument a little, but only for my own amazement.
Fred Allen, American Comedian (1894-1956)
It actually took me a year to learn how to play running back - to understand what they were doing defensively and then what our guys were doing every single play.
Marcus Allen, American Athlete (1960-  )
You've got to be extremely careful, because you could be with a great team, and you could be the product of a great team. There are some players that stand out despite the teams that they play on, and there are some players that are good because of the team that they're with.
Marcus Allen, American Athlete (1960-  )
You know, I think when I reflect on it, I think there's certainly a sense of history. When you have ambitions to play this game, you want to be one of the best ever, and you want to play so well and be so effective that you want people to remember your name 100 years from now.
Marcus Allen, American Athlete (1960-  )
It really lasted the whole game, because I was really untouchable, unstoppable that game. But it was heightened on one particular play, and that was the longest run where everything completely slowed down. My awareness was so keen, it was so heightened, it was really amazing.
Marcus Allen, American Athlete (1960-  )
If a horse won't eat it, I don't want to play on it.
Richie Allen, American Athlete (1942-  )
I'll play first, third, left. I'll play anywhere - except Philadelphia.
Richie Allen, American Athlete (1942-  )
I wish they'd shut the gates, and let us play ball with no press and no fans.
Richie Allen, American Athlete (1942-  )
When I play ball, I play hardball.
Kirstie Alley, American Actress (1951-  )
