Famous quotes containing the word opera:

    “The Opera is obviously the first draft of a fine spectacle; it suggests the idea of one.”
    —Jean De La Bruyère (1645–1696)

    “He rides in the Row at ten o’clock in the morning, goes to the Opera three times a week, changes his clothes at least five times a day, and dines out every night of the season. You don’t call that leading an idle life, do you?”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    “I wish the opera was every night. It is, of all entertainments, the sweetest and most delightful. Some of the songs seemed to melt my very soul.”
    —Frances Burney (1752–1840)
