Famous quotes containing the word opera:

    “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)

    “Are you suggesting that we reopen the Opera with a murder as an added attraction?”
    —Eric Taylor, Leroux, and Arthur Lubin. Lecours (Fritz Feld)

    “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)
