"Life's too short and fate too funny to get upstage, Today they may be showering us with roses on Broadway and tomorrow some fool director who used to be a waiter may be rejecting us as atmosphere in a five reel five cent feature."

(Olive Thomas, pseudonimo di Oliva R. Duffy, modella e prima attrice a impersonare una flapper sul grande schermo; Charleroi, 20 ottobre 1894 – Neuilly-sur-Seine, 10 settembre 1920)
