Augustus's major-domo is saying that he used to be an actor but has given up, and goes on to complain to the Greek guy that "the theatre isn't what it was, you know".<BR/><BR/>And the Greek responds: "No. And I'll tell you something else: it never was what it was."<BR/><BR/>Great little line...and very true.Mike Salterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08133817212055957800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29638226.post-41467309481456931092007-05-02T21:44:00.000+10:002007-05-02T21:44:00.000+10:00Hellooo sir.Haha first to comment.I got a blog too...Hellooo sir.<BR/>Haha first to comment.<BR/>I got a blog too. <BR/>How awesome am i?!<BR/>Started in the holidays since the first week was full of assignmenting.<BR/>Latin is tiring when you're not very awake.<BR/>Anywho gotta start writing notes for nxt week's test.Sophiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15113595715566128026noreply@blogger.com
