Famous quotes containing the word opera:

    Eric Taylor, Leroux, and Arthur Lubin. Lecours (Fritz Feld)

    A pretty air in an opera is prettier there than it could be anywhere else, I suppose, just as an honest man in politics shines more than he would elsewhere.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    The opera house sparkled with tiers
    And tiers of eyes, like mine enlarged by belladonna,
    James Merrill (b. 1926)
