Actors

“

All perform their tragic play,
There struts Hamlet, there is Lear.

Their eyes mid many wrinkles, their eyes,
Their ancient, glittering eyes, are gay.

“

Heaven blazing into the head:
Tragedy wrought to its uttermost.
Though Hamlet rambles and Lear rages,
And all the drop-scenes drop at once
Upon a hundred thousand stages,
It cannot grow by an inch or an ounce.

William Butler Yeats

Players and painted stage took all my love,
And not those things that they were emblems of.

William Butler Yeats
