ЦИТАТЫ СО СЛОВОМ «UNDERSTATEMENT»
Известные цитаты и высказывания со словом
understatement.
The understatement is the English contribution to comedy.
To ask if I am mischievous is the understatement of all time.
I first decided that I wanted to act when I was 9. And I was at a very bizarre prep school at the time; to say 'high Anglo-Catholic' would be a real English understatement.
However old-fashioned and right-wing this may sound, the American genius for language lies in understatement, in saying things simply, pointedly and quickly, and in making new and clean and swift what otherwise might be ponderous, round and slow.
My father was a really funny guy. He lived a good long life. And he was the reason I wanted to be funny and become a comedian and a comedy writer, so to say that he's somewhat of a mythic figure in my life would be an understatement.
It's not an understatement to say that I owe everything as an actor to 'Merlin.' It was pretty much my first job, and I didn't know what I was doing for many years on it. It wasn't until the third and fourth series - the fourth series especially - that I really found my feet with the character, and as an actress.
A discerning eye needs only a hint, and understatement leaves the imagination free to build its own elaborations.
To say that I am organized is an understatement, but my car tells a different story.
I'm pretty blessed when it comes to clear skin. I owe that to being Cape Verdian. My whole family has great skin. My grandfather is 80 but doesn't look a day over 50. And we all love the sun, too, so blessed is an understatement!
Whether you are sixteen or over sixty, remember, understatement is the rule of a fine makeup artist.
