Famous quotes containing the words musical and/or theater:

    Sometimes a musical phrase would perfectly sum up
    The mood of a moment. One of those lovelorn sonatas
    For wind instruments was riding past on a solemn white horse.
    Everybody wondered who the new arrival was.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    When the theater gates open, a mob pours inside, and it is the poet’s task to turn it into an audience.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
