Famous quotes containing the words musical and/or theater:

    “There was something refreshingly and wildly musical to my ears in the very name of the white man’s canoe, reminding me of Charlevoix and Canadian Voyageurs. The batteau is a sort of mongrel between the canoe and the boat, a fur-trader’s boat.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “In the theater of confusion, knowing the location of the exits is what counts.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
