Fun Broadway/Theatre sayings/quotes

Hey everyone! so I'm redoing my room, and I wanted to put a quote somewhere on my wall with some broadway connection. This is hard to explain so I'll give some examples:

"(I'm just a) Broadway Baby" --sondheim obviously
"Which way to the stage?"--Rent
"I'll be Astonishing"-Little Women...

etc...those are just examples..I want something real good! and anyways this could be a fun thread...so yeah...

please! thanks!

love,
Steph
and all that I could do because of you was talk of love...

"And they love me, and I love them, and they love me for loving them, and I love them for loving me, because none of us got enough love in our childhoods... and that's show biz!" From Chicago. I think I got most of that quote right.

Oh, and "Putting It Together".

"If you were gay, that'd be okay."

Nah, but seriously, my former drama teacher once said, "Everything is an audition," and I think that quote has been the most consistently helpful and inspirational in my life. Fantastic insight in that, and it's just so true.
