Famous quotes containing the words large and/or concerts:

    “Mr. Goodman’s large soft pinkish face was, and is, remarkably like a cow’s udder.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    “If you love music, hear it; go to operas, concerts and pay fiddlers to play to you; but I insist on your neither piping nor fiddling yourself. It puts a gentleman in a very frivolous, contemptible light.... Few things would mortify me more than to see you bearing a part in a concert, with a fiddle under your chin, or a pipe in your mouth.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
