10 QUOTES WITH «PROPS»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word props.
1
Patch Adams
We are a breathtakingly alienated people... One of my props is the world's largest underpants. I've had the president of Costa Rica in my underpants with me.
2
Jane Badler
Most of my avant garde fashion is saved for my videos and for the stage. In real life, I tend towards a classy, black Goth look. I love black, a few sparkles, false eyelashes and boots. But when I perform, I love fantasy and props.
3
Catherine Bell
The main prank that we play with props is for people's birthdays. The special effects people will put a little explosive in the cake so it blows up in their face - that's always fun to play on a guest star, or one of the trainees or someone who's new.
4
Roz Chast
I can't even look at daily comic strips. And I hate sitcoms because they don't seem like real people to me: they're props that often say horrible things to each other, which I don't find funny. I have to feel like they're real people.
5
Min-sik Choi
I admit that I've been beaten up so many times in films, but we do not fake it - we actually have to fight when we shoot to make it real and to save film and time. Even the props that are not real, like the bats are plastic, but they're still very hard, so it still hurts.
6
Chuck D
Of course voting is useful. But then again, I don't put a big glow to it. Voting is about as essential as washing yourself. It's something you're supposed to do. Now, you can't go around bragging, expecting to get props because you voted. That's stupid.
7
Andy Daly
It's so cliche, but I love the feeling you get from improv that anything can happen. The audience is already accepting that there are no props or costumes or furniture, so the performers can be anywhere doing anything; cut from underground to space, and it doesn't matter.
8
Raoul Dufy
I don't follow any system. All the laws you can lay down are only so many props to be cast aside when the hour of creation arrives.
9
Morgan Freeman
And finding the hat, I always like to find the hat. And then props just dress the set. It's all fabulous.
10
Robert Friedland
Promoting a stock is like making a movie. You've got to have stars, props, and a good script.
