Opera Windows

Famous quotes containing the words opera and/or windows:

“I have witnessed, and greatly enjoyed, the first act of everything which Wagner created, but the effect on me has always been so powerful that one act was quite sufficient; whenever I have witnessed two acts I have gone away physically exhausted; and whenever I have ventured an entire opera the result has been the next thing to suicide.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

“And Saints—to windows run—
To see the little Tippler
Leaning against the—Sun—”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
