Opening Repertoire

Famous quotes containing the words opening and/or repertoire:

    “The busy tribes of flesh and blood,
    With all their lives and cares,
    Are carried downwards by thy flood,
    And lost in following years.

    Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
    Bears all its sons away;
    They fly forgotten, as a dream
    Dies at the opening day.”
    —Isaac Watts (1674–1748)

    “The best joke-tellers are those who have the patience to wait for conversation to come around to the point where the jokes in their repertoire have application.”
    —Joseph Epstein (b. 1937)
