brothers business college gave great grown insurance loved mother poor secretary time type worked
My mother was a great typist. She said she loved to type because it gave her time to think. She was a secretary for an insurance company. She was a poor girl; she'd grown up in an orphanage, and she went to a business college - and then worked to put her brothers through school.
changing clouds hurry minutes nature plays run time
I think that in my plays you can come in for 20 minutes and get something out of it. I'd like to do a play that would run for days. I don't think time is that important. Nature doesn't hurry the sky, the changing clouds and sunsets.
few journal remain time
One of the few things that will remain of this time is what artists are doing. They are the journal and the diary of our time.
time
I think mystery... allows us time to dream.
anyone bother half hear hour later lists notes people time
I don't see anyone for the first hour and a half that I'm awake. I don't like to talk, and I don't like to hear any sounds. People know not to bother me! I use that time to read, and make lists and notes of things I have to do later in the day.
full present time update work
I try to present something that is full of time. Not timeless, but full of time. I never like a work where we try to update it, but it's still not interesting to see a work that is dated. If one is successful, then a work can be full of time. And time is very complex.
broader material opera presented range
I think that opera in Europe is 30 years ahead of America. There is a broader range of material presented to the public. They value contemporary opera.
alone
I say I like to be alone, yet I am always surrounded by people.
nature work
I think it's just my nature. I can't work on one thing. I have to work on many things.
trying
You just have no idea what it was like trying to get out of there,
method sit work
My method is much like choreography. I don't sit at a table. I work in a room with people.
fast life pace people
I think people are looking for an alternative to the fast pace of everyday life and entertainment.
close full
We get pretty close to full each night.

We have had an excellent response to our early recruitment activities which have attracted a wide selection of Macclesfield Town supporters from near and far. Although the majority of members come from Macclesfield itself, we have members from as far afield as London and Southampton. And we even have some international members from Norway, Denmark and Australia.
