The Belle of New York

"I played the part during the long run in the United States so Iwas very used to it, and there was nothing out of the ordinary about the first night in London, until the sensation caused by their tremendous applause came to me. There was nothing like it, nothing that approaches it. It is quite the most delicious sensation on earth. I don't expect ever to feel it again quite as I did that night. It's like the first kiss, you know, or the first anything. After that it's only repetition."
Edna speaking about the opening night of "The Belle of New York" in London.
