Don't you love farce?
My fault I fear.
I thought that you'd want what I want.
Sorry, my dear.
But where are the clowns?
Quick, send in the clowns.
Don't bother, they're here.

— Stephen Sondheim

More quotes by Stephen Sondheim

The nice thing about doing a crossword puzzle is, you know there is a solution.

Oh, if life were made of moments,
Even now and then a bad one!
But if life were only moments,
Then you'd never know you had one.

Into The Woods (1986)

I'm depraved on account of I'm deprived.

I'm a lazy writer. My idea of heaven is not writing. On the other hand, I'm obviously compulsive about it.

There's a place for us, Somewhere a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air wait for us, Somewhere.
There's a time for us, Some day a time for us
Time together with time to spare, time to look, time to care, Someday.
Somewhere we'll find a new way of living.
We'll find a way of forgiving, Somewhere.'
